Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Redbridge

We have quite good coverage for the London Borough of Redbridge, which was formed in 1965 from the Municipal Boroughs of Ilford, and Wanstead & Woodford, plus small portions of the Borough of Dagenham and Urban District of Chigwell, and transferred from Essex to Greater London. The area includes maps from both our London and Essex series, which link up with each other. All maps are available from our On-line Mapshop.

The following titles are all taken from the OS 25" maps and reduced to a scale of approximately 14 inches to the mile. They are extremely detailed, showing individual houses, details such as railway tracks, pathways, pubs, factories and even minutiae such as fountains and signal posts. Each covers an area of a mile and a half by one mile, and includes an introduction. Click on the links below for further details.
