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 Mortlake & North Sheen:
We have published just the one map for this area. The map covers an area stretching from part of Kew Gardens, including the Temperate House, eastward to Mortlake station and The Green, and from Kew Gardens station southward to Lower Mortlake Road. In the centre is an area of orchards, for the map really covers the area inbetween Richmond, Kew and Mortlake. In the SW corner are a few streets of NE Richmond. Other features on the map include tramways, Gas works, a stretch of the Thames, and the West End of Mortlake. There are extracts from a Richmond Street Directory, together with a list of Private Residents in Mortlake. (Note that Kew Gardens continue onto Sheet 84.)
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with London Sheets 84 Kew to the north, 96 Isleworth to the west, 98 Barnes to the east, 111 Richmond Hill to the south.
