Hi - can anyone recommend a website/supplier of central London street maps that would cover the period 1800 - 1900?

Im also looking for a map of all the different parishes in central London if anyone can recommend a source?

Would be grateful if anyone has a recommendation or two.

THhanks!

Hi James

www.alangodfreymaps.co.uk

They have hundreds of old maps for sale at very reasonable prices. I have bought from them in the past and can recommend them

This is my favourite, and you can print from them yourself.

The link below is to an excellent site that has all the London maps free online going back to 1560. The earliest map they have is a Roman map dated AD 190.
