London Subscription

Maps of London

  • We have offered a London Subscription since the 1980s and this has helped us develop the series into a huge selection of London and Middlesex maps, as well as several Surrey, Kent and Essex maps that cover areas now in Greater London. Some of those who have subscribed from the 1980s and 90s have built up large collections of our maps in this way!
  • Over the past two years we have concentrated on the large scale maps, taken from the original OS 1:1056 or 'Five foot' plans from the 1860s and '70s. Since 2023 we have published 40 of these, to add to those already available, and there is still much to be done. We are therefore continuing with a further subscription, for 10 new maps for London commencing with two new titles to be published in August 2026. This subscription costs £ 33.00 for ten maps, postage free, a substantial saving on the normal price. We intend to complete this group by the end of 2026. Most of the maps will be for London's East End, including Stepney, Bow and Limehouse.
  • The maps will be taken from the early Five foot or 1:1056 plans, published in the early 1870s, which we reduce in scale to 1:1760 or a Yard to the Mile. Each map also includes a later edition of the map on the reverse, together with an introduction to the history of the area.
  • Note that this subscription is essentially for the new maps, not those already available or published. For those maps for the area already published, visit the relevant London page. This special offer is for UK customers only. We hope you will join us in subscribing to our new London group and supporting this continuing project. Quite simply, the more maps we sell, and the more subscribers we have, the more we can publish!
  • This London Subscription costs just £ 33.00 for the next 10 maps. There is an Earlybird offer of £ 30.00 and £ until late June.
  • Subscriptions can be placed through our On-line Mapshop or by contacting our office in the usual way.
