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 Croydon (N):
This map covers north Croydon and the area known, perhaps confusingly, as West Croydon, taking its name from the railway station. It covers an area stretching from Handcroft Road and Sumner Road eastward to Dartnell Road and Jesmond Road; and from West Croydon station northward to Selhurst station and Edith Road. Features on this busy map include numerous railway junctions (Norwood Fork Junction, Selhurst Junction, Windmill Bridge Junction, Gloucester Road Junction); Croydon Common Athletic Ground, home to Croydon Common FC and, for a while, Crystal Palace; Croydon Workhouse, Queens Road Cemetery, General Hospital, Croydon Union Infirmary; Addiscombe Road station. On the reverse are street directories for St James's Road, Sydenham Road, Whitehorse Road, Whitehorse Lane.
