We have published more than 2,000 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 Plumstead:
We have published two versions of this map, showing how the area developed across the years. The map covers an area stretching from Plumstead station eastward to Shieldhall Street at Abbey Wood, and southward to Plumstead Common and Bostall Woods. Features include tramways, Woolwich Workhouse, St Nicholas church, Goldie Leigh Cottage Homes, the Manor Ground (Arsenal's second ground). On the reverse are selected directory entries.
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with London Sheets 82 Plumstead Marshes to the north, 94 Woolwich to the west, 108 East Wickham to the south; also with Kent Sheet 2.12 Belvedere to the east.
