Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Roxburghshire


We have so far published just two maps for the Border county of Roxburghshire - hopefully we will be able to publish more at some stage. Here are the details:


  • 21.05 Jedburgh 1898 - publ 1994, introduction by Helen Morris
  • 25.07 Hawick 1897 - publ 2000, intro by John Griffiths

    Jedburgh has much of interest, with its ruined abbey, its connections with Mary Queen of Scots, and its little railway branch. Our double-sided map shows the town in detail. By contrast, "Teribus ye Teriodin" is Hawick's traditional cry, perhaps reflecting a rumbustious history as it was burnt and reburnt in the Middle Ages, before settling down to become a prosperous market and textile town in the 18th century, first with linen and stockings, later with woollen mills and twills. By 1891 the population was 19,204 and it was a major railway station on the Waverley Route, sadly closed in 1969.

    You might find these index maps useful for:

  • Hawick and
  • Jedburgh

    The maps cost just £ 2.25 each. You can now order maps direct from our On-line Mapshop. For other information and postage costs, see Index Page and Ordering Information Page.


    Most maps in the Godfrey Edition are taken from the 25 inch to the mile map and reduced to about 15 inches to the mile. For a full list of maps for Scotland, go to the Scotland page
