25 inch to the mile maps

[Guy Etchells]

Whilst at Manchester Family History fair a couple of weeks ago I came across the stand for a firm called Digital Archives Association, 3 Cedarways, Appelton Warrington, WA4 5EW tel. 01925 265794.

They have produced a cd containing 750 twenty-five inch to the mile ordnance survey maps (first series 1862-1872) of Derbyshire. Cost £25.00p
These Ordnance Survey maps were first produced between 1896 and 1900 and I feel would enhance any Derbyshire research.

Cheers

Guy

I wondered why there was no URL, and a search discovered that their site is still being developed but will be live shortly

Info so far .....
County Series maps CD-ROMS – Northern Lancashire; Manchester and the SE; Liverpool and the SW; Derbyshire. Other areas may be in production. Also some non-OS maps scanned.

These CDROMs are available from the DRO in Matlock at the same price of £25.

Couldn't resist so looked at the url anyway... which wasn't even regsitered. However, a quick search on some whois sites revealed the domain digitalarchivesassociation registered to this association rather than the .org one. So tried that one... and as you say, still nothing there
