We have published more than 2,000 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, and the series includes a very good group for Worcestershire. 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. For other information and Prices, see Index Page.
Here are the details of maps for Northfield:
This detailed map covers the northern part of Northfield, with coverage stretching from Street Farm and Bunbury Road northward to Griffins Brook House; and from Lower Tinkers Farm eastward to The Dell. The Bristol Road runs through the map and features include the Bell Inn, Bell Hill, Bell Farm, The Priory, The Woodlands, Belmont, Haygreen Farm, Middleton Hall. The area retained a rural feel at the time of the map. On the reverse we include a directory of Northfield in 1907
The map links up to the east with Worcs Sheet 10.08 Lifford and to the south with Sheet 10.11 Northfield South.
