Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Devon

  • These detailed maps normally cover an area of about one and a half miles by one mile. Each map includes an introduction.
  • They are available through our On-line Mapshop
  • Both Devonport and Plymouth became County Boroughs in 1889, but they, together with East Stonehouse Urban District, merged as Plymouth County Borough in 1914. This became the City of Plymouth in 1928. There was a reorganisation in 1974, with a county council and ten Districts, of which Plymouth was one. However, in 1998 Plymouth and Torbay both became unitary authorities once again.
  • See This Page for a summary of Devon's local government history.

  • Most maps in the Godfrey Edition are taken from the 25 inch to the mile map and reduced to about 15 inches to the mile. For the rest of Devon go to the Devon page, for Torbay to the Torbay page. For a full list of English maps, return to the England page

    This list shows all our maps for the area. We try to keep a full range in print but inevitably some titles fall out of print from time to time. These are noted in our On-line Mapshop.
