Subject: New online maps - National Grid maps - Edinburgh environs,
1940s-1960s

 

We've just made available our earliest editions of Ordnance Survey National
Grid maps covering the Edinburgh environs - 750 maps. 

 

We have focused on Edinburgh initially not just because it's the centre of
the World, but as part of our collaborative work with the MESH Edinburgh
Atlas project, to create a georeferenced layer of post-War Edinburgh
mapping, and we plan to extend coverage geographically in the future.
