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 Monken Hadley:
"This map shows the historic centre of Monken Hadley which developed at the crossing of the ancient roads at the south-western edge of Enfield Chase." So begins the introduction to this map. The village of Monken Hadley, with St Mary's church, The Priory and Gladsmuir House, is at the west of the map, and coverage extends eastward to Beech Hill Park, and southward to the northern fringe of New Barnet. The GNR main line runs north-south through the centre of the map, which is also crossed west-east by the woods of Enfield Chase, including Bournwell Hill, Priddeons Hill, Little Broadgates Hill, and parts of Hadley Woods. North of New Barnet development is taking place in the Clifford Road, Hadley Road, Woodville Road area. At the northern edge of the map Crescent West, at the edge of the Beech Hill Park development, is shown.
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with Middlesex Sheets 6.03 Barnet & Hadley to the west, 6.08 New Barnet to the south.
