Old Ordnance Survey Inch to the Mile Maps

  • These maps normally cover an area of about 18 miles by 12 miles and are especially good at showing railways, roads and canals, and at giving a broad view of a wider area. Each includes an introduction and a more detailed map of a small town or village. They are available through our On-line Mapshop

  • Here is information about Sheet 286:

  • One Inch Sheet 286 East Surrey & Mole Valley 1885 - published 1998; intro by Richard Oliver. ISBN.978-1-84151-001-9

    This Inch to the Mile map covers much of the eastern half of Surrey. Coverage stretches from Effingham Junction eastward to Oxted and Crowhurst, and from Epsom southward to Gatwick. Reigate and Redhill are in the centre of the map and other towns covered include Dorking and Leatherhead. On the reverse is an extract from Surrey Sheet 27.14 showing Bletchingley (or Blechingley) in detail, with a directory.
