These maps are taken from the famous OS "Inch to the Mile" Maps. Though obviously far less detailed than the large scale maps for which we are perhaps better known, they provide an invaluable overview of a wider area, typically 18 miles across by 12 miles down. For transport historians they are invaluable for showing old railways, while all historians need them for their close depiction of topography, including parish boundaries. These maps also mean that we can offer historical coverage for small villages where a large scale map would not be commercially viable. We intend to publish the whole of England and Wales in this series. Over 200 titles are now available and we aim to publish three new titles each month. The maps include historical notes and all (except the double-sided Tyneside title) also include a large scale map of a small town or village in the area.
Here is information about Sheets 353:
With this map we give you two maps for the price of one. One side has Inch to the Mile Sheet 353, which covers the area from Mevagissey westward to Tregoney, southward to Veryan Bay and Dodman Point.
The other side has a large scale map of Mevagissey, sheet 59.12, covering the town in detail. Features here include Stuckumb Point, Harbour, The Pool, St Issi's church, Treleaven, town centre with all houses neatly delineated.
It is not possible to list the many hamlets, farmsteads and other topographical features shown on these maps. However, you may find it useful if we list the towns and principal villages or church parishes that are included on this map. Links are given for those for which detailed large-scale maps are also available.
