	Thanks for this. I haven't yet looked at the map but I know it is going to come in useful. I have so many locations where the actual house has been demolished but the road still exists. At least I will be able to figure out where my ancestors stood. Off to explore (and bookmark) now!

	Thanks Paul this map is great. I looked on Google Earth for the area first so I knew roughly where to look on the Richard Horton map Wendy x
	Researching: Matthew and Jane Elwood who had my great great grandfather Francis Edward Elwood baptised in 1807 at Horsham Sussex. There is no sign of Matthew or Jane from this date and my great great grandfather was brought up as Francis Edward Elwood MITCHELL
