Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Somerset

We have a range of detailed maps for Somerset towns, and we also cover the whole county at the Inch to the Mile scale.

All maps are available from our On-line Mapshop.

Somerset County Council was formed in 1889. There was a reorganisation in 1974, when the northern part of the county, comprising Bath, Wansdyke and Woodspring, became part of the County of Avon. The rest of Somerset had a 2-tier structure with a county council and 5 districts.

See This Page for a summary of the county'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 a full list of English maps, return to the England page

You can order maps direct from our On-line Mapshop.

This list shows all our maps for the county. 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.
