Historic Maps

Yes I'm back from our short break in Jersey, our first visit!

If you get the chance to go, it's well worth it and we found maps invaluable.

No we couldn't access Google Maps as neither 3G or 4G was available.

Today's post is linked to our maps experience...

Old Maps Online - https://www.oldmapsonline.org/ - is a good site that learners, and/or practitioners, can use to find historic maps. 

Old Maps Online
is a map resource that users can browse and search to find historical maps to...
  • view on-line, 
  • download, and 
  • print.
Users can search for a map by...
  • entering a location or 
  • pan and zoom around the world to find historical maps.
Take a look at the video produced by Richard Byrne, which demonstrates how to use Old Maps Online, at https://www.youtube.com/embed/SdgSi6P1-Ug

If you give Old Maps Online a try or have already used Old Maps Online, do share your feedback, positive and/or negative, in the comments.

Thank you.
