Ordnance Survey Great Britain County Series

Overview

The maps included the area of most civil parishes and their detached parts, extra-parochial areas and townships. The area was given in acres to three decimal places. As boundary changes occurred throughout the late 19th century, reprints of map sheets would be updated with annotations detailing these changes.
