Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Horley


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.

  • Surrey Sheet 41.04 Horley 1912 - published 2001; introduction by Alan A Jackson

    Horley station, on the London-Brighton line, opened in 1841 and this map shows the village that grew up around it. The railway runs north-south through the map, and the station is almost in the centre; housing development is shown to the north and west, as far as Horley Street. A few houses are also being built to the east near the Balcombe Road. To the SW is Gatwick manor house, and the northern part of Gatwick Race Course, today lost beneath the airport. There is a directory of Horley on the reverse, together with an introduction by Alan Jackson.
