We have published more than 2,000 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, including a group for the Merionethshire 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 Barmouth:
This detailed map covers the coastal town of Barmouth in 1900. Points of interest on the map include St Margarets School, St Tudwals RC Church, Orielton Hall and St Johns Church. Other features include Orielton Wood, Barmouth Bridge, Aber-Amffra Harbour and the Cambrian Railway which travels along the coastline.
