Here are the details of maps for Brough:

Yorkshire Sheet 238.08 Brough 1908 - published 2005; intro by Susan Neave. ISBN.978-1-84151-829-9

This detailed map covers the village of Brough, originally within the parish of Elloughton. The two had a combined population of just 1009 in 1901 but this would grow massively in the 20th century, following the building of a factory by the Blackburn Aeroplane & Motor Co in 1916. In 1908, however, this remained a somewhat straggling village and our map covers the area around the station, where features also include a corn factory, wharf, Skillings Lodge Farm, Brough House, and a smattering of houses. Coverage continues north to the Westfield Park area of Elloughton, and features here include Mill Hill, The Castle, (but note that the village centre is beyond this map). A small portion of southern Brantingham, around the Roman Road, is also included. The map also includes directories for Brantingham, Brough and Elloughton.

You can order maps direct from our On-line Mapshop. For other information and prices, and other areas, go to The Index Page.
