We have published more than 1,800 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, some 300 of them in the London area. The maps are highly detailed. They are taken from the OS 1:2,500 (or 25 inch) maps and reduced to about 15 inches to the mile. They show streets with individual houses, tram tracks, railway tracks and even signals, factories, wharves and such details as fountains and water troughs. They will provide hours of fascination for historians and genealogists. The maps are neatly folded and each includes a specially written introduction to the area. Maps can be purchased on our On-line Mapshop where further information about titles is given. For other information and Prices, see Index Page.
Here are the details of maps for Finchley (NW):
We have published just the one edition of this map. It covers the NW area of Finchley, running from St Mary's church and Regents Park Road westward, and with Holders Hill Road and the Dollis Brook running down the centre of the map; northward the map stretches to Mill Hill station on the GNR Edgware branch (today's Mill Hill East). Further west the map is entirely rural. On the reverse we include more than half of the next edition, from 1912, and this shows how NW Finchley had developed in those years. Streets include Hendon Lane, Hendon Avenue, Dollis Avenue, Gordon Road, Church Crescent, Dollis Road and others.
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with Middlesex Sheets 6.15 Mill Hill Village to the north, 11.02 Burnt Oak to the west and 11.07 Hendon to the south; and with London Sheet 5 Mid Finchley to the east.
