Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Lancashire and Cheshire


We first started to publish maps of Lancashire in the mid 1980s. Since then the series has grown to well over 200 maps, so it makes sense to split this catalogue into several pages, generally based on today's administrative areas. There are also index maps for most areas, giving an idea of the map coverage. Or if you prefer, here is a link which will give you a complete list of maps for the two counties.

  • Furness including Barrow
  • North Lancashire & the Fylde, incl Blackpool, Lancaster, Preston, Chorley
  • East Lancashire incl Accrington, Burnley, Rossendale

    Much of the area is also covered in our Inch to the Mile series. For a list of this growing series go to the One Inch page for further details.


    Most maps in the Godfrey Edition are taken from the 25 inch to the mile map and reduced to about 15 inches to the mile. They cost just £ 2.25 each.
