We have published more than 1,800 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, including a group in Sussex. 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. Each covers an area of a mile and a half by a 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. Or visit The Index Page for a full list to the series and details of Prices.
Here are the details of maps for Three Bridges:
This map of Three Bridges, so detailed that individual houses are shown, is dominated by the railway that runs north-south through, with branches running off west and east at Three Bridges Junction. Railway detail includes tracks, signal posts, turntables, engine sheds. West of the station are High Street, Hazelwick Road and North Road, and the map extends eastward to Blackwater Wood, Pound Hill, Burleys Wood, Crabbet Park and, at the foot of the map, part of the village of Worth, including the church. On the reverse we include a directory of Worth in 1905, together with a railway timetable for the London - Three Bridges - Tunbridge Wells line in 1908.
