Old Ordnance Survey Inch to the Mile Maps

These maps normally cover an area of about 18 miles by 12 miles and are especially good at showing railways, roads and canals, and at giving a broad view of a wider area. Each includes an introduction and a more detailed map of a small town or village. They are available through our On-line Mapshop

Here is information about Sheet 274:

One Inch Sheet 274 Isle of Thanet 1893 - published 2009; intro by Barrie Trinder. ISBN.84784-327-2

This map covers most of the Isle of Thanet, including the major towns of Margate, Ramsgate and Broadstairs. On the reverse we include a detailed map of the historic village of Minster.

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 parishes that are included on this map:

Kent: Acol, Birchington, Broadstairs, Margate, Minster, Ramsgate, St Lawrence, St Nicholas at Wade, St Peters, Westgate on Sea.
