An Historical Map of York: From Medieval Times to 1850 (Town & City Historical Maps)

It's a really great map and an excellent format for walking around York and identifying the city's history.

Shame that to date no other historic towns/cities are covered in the same way - excellent, both for map addicts and historians

This new 2018 version is a rework and reissue of the 2012 version, now by the Historic Towns Trust in its Town and City Historical Maps series. It is presented in a new binding, with a folding card cover - the same format as an OS map - with all new illustrations. An excellent map of York in the 1850's. The earlier version of 2012 came as a folded map with cover and contained in a slip case. This 2018 version has NO slip case, and is now the same size and presentation as a standard OS map. The thick card map cover has a history of York on its reverse. On the reverse of the detailed full colour 1850 map is a comprehensive gazetteer of York's buildings and sites of interest. Fascinating detail to study for hours !

Super

Fascinating to see a map showing York in days gone by.
