This old, full colour and wonderful map shows the county of Surrey as it was in 1829. Published in Greenwood's Atlas of England & Wales and engraved by J & C Walker, this is one of the finest old county maps from the 1800s.
I can create beautiful, large prints of this map up to 70 inches wide (175cm). Please get in touch if you're looking for larger, customised or different framing options.
Many of the towns, villages and cities in Surrey are already visible in this map.
Brixton, Clapham, Dulwich and Camberwell are clearly visible in the top right - back then they were parts of Surrey, until they became part of the London borough of Lambeth in 1889.
In the bottom right corner is a beautiful engraving of Lambeth Palace & Church.
Some of the towns, villages and places clearly visible in this old county map include: Woking, Leatherhead, Walton-on-Thames, Guildford, Kingston, Esher, Cobham, Godalming, Oxted, Croydon, Brentford, Mortlake, Richmond, Sutton, Morden, and many others.
Take a look at the detailed images and try to spot your hometown!
Somewhat unusually, this map also includes polling locations for county elections, parishes, churches, windmills, watermills, railways and much more.
This would make a wonderful gift for someone from Surrey or who has Surrey in their heart.
You can order the map itself, or you can order a framed version. The frame is a nice, simple black frame that really makes our maps pop out when on a wall. Please get in touch if you'd like a different frame. We use super-clear perspex in our frames - it's less reflective than glass and better for transport.
