We have published more than 2,000 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, including a group for the Lincs and Northampton 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. Each covers an area of a mile and a half by a 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. Or visit The Index Page for a full list to the series and details of Prices.
Here are the details of maps for Grimsby & Cleethorpes:
This detailed map covers the eastern part of Grimsby with the western part of Cleethorpes. Coverage stretches from Victor Street eastward to Suggits Lane, and from Harold Streeet northward to the docks. A major feature on the map is the Fish Docks, which appear in the top left corner. Other points of interest include New Clee Station and Blundell Park Football Ground, which was the original home of Grimsby Town FC from 1889. Sheets 22.03 and 22.04, which show the dock entrances, are included as an insert. On the reverse of the map we include street directory entries for Barcroft Street, Guildford Street, Harrington Street, Hilda Street, Stirling Street, Victor Street and Weelsby Street.
The map links up with Lincolnshire Sheet 22.07 Grimsby North to the west.
