SEE THE IMAGES. ### ## Ordnance Survey (OS) is the national mapping agency of Great Britain, producing detailed and accurate maps for various purposes. Its origins date back to the 18th century as a military project to survey the Scottish Highlands and the southern coasts of England in response to the Jacobite rebellion and the French Revolution. The name Ordnance Survey reflects its connection to the Board of Ordnance, the defence ministry of the time.## ## One of the pioneers of OS was William Roy, a young engineer who conducted the first small-scale survey of Scotland from 1747 to 1755, using simple instruments such as compasses and chains. He later undertook a more ambitious project to geodetically connect the Royal Observatories of Greenwich and Paris, using a sophisticated theodolite made by Jesse Ramsden. This project, which started in 1784 and lasted until 1790, laid the foundation for the trigonometrical survey of Britain, which aimed to create a network of accurately measured triangles across the country.## ## The trigonometrical survey, also known as the Principal Triangulation, was officially initiated in 1791, marking the birth of OS. It involved measuring baselines on flat ground, such as Hounslow Heath, and then extending the triangles to hills and mountains, where observatories were built to house the theodolites. The surveyors had to deal with various challenges like weather, terrain, visibility, and accuracy. The survey was completed in 1853, covering over 300,000 square kilometres and 5,000 stations.## ## The trigonometrical survey provided the basis for the first accurate map of Britain, which was published by OS in 1801. It was a one-inch-to-the-mile map of Kent, showing roads, rivers, hills, settlements, and land cover. It was followed by maps of other counties and regions, using different scales and symbols. OS also produced maps of overseas British colonies, such as India, Africa, and the Caribbean, under the Directorate of Colonial Surveys and the Directorate of Overseas Surveys.## ##Over the years, OS has evolved and adapted to the changing needs and technologies of mapping. It has introduced new methods and standards of surveying, such as levelling, photogrammetry, aerial photography, and satellite positioning. It has diversified its products and services, such as digital mapping, online platforms, mobile apps, and geospatial data.

ISBN.978-1-84151-204-4 We have published two versions of this map, showing how the area developed across the years. The maps each cover the same area, which is centred on Barking Creek, where the River Roding meets the Thames. At the time Creekmouth was described as "an isolated hamlet of Barking - seldom visited by ordinary visitors or noticed by historians". Much is marshland. However, the left side of the map does include a significant part of the vast Beckton Gas Works, with its many sidings etc, and Beckton Pier. There is a chemical works east of the Creek and small communities at Creekmouth and Gallions Cottages. By 1894 the Barking fishing fleet had largely disappeared; however, Tony Clifford tells how in 1909 Frederick Handley Page was using Creekmouth for an experimental aircraft factory. The map covers the Thames and the Plumstead Marshes shoreline opposite. There is a bonus with the 1894 map, for on the reverse of this we have included an Inch to the Mile Map, from c.1870. This covers the area east of London, from Plaistow, Wanstad, Woodford, Loughton and Buckhurst Hill eastward to Billericay, and including Barking, Ilford, Romford, Brentwood, Rainham, Dagenham, Orsett, Havering atte Bower, Chigwell, Mountnessing, Hornchurch, Horndon on the Hill.

The survey was completed in 1853, covering over 300,000 square kilometres and 5,000 stations.## ## The trigonometrical survey provided the basis for the first accurate map of Britain, which was published by O.S. in 1801. It was a one-inch-to-the-mile map of Kent, showing roads, rivers, hills, settlements, and land cover. It was followed by maps of other counties and regions, using different scales and symbols. O.S. also produced maps of overseas British colonies, such as India, Africa, and the Caribbean, under the Directorate of Colonial Surveys and the Directorate of Overseas Surveys.## ##Over the years, O.S. has evolved and adapted to the changing needs and technologies of mapping. It has introduced new methods and standards of surveying, such as levelling, photogrammetry, aerial photography, and satellite positioning. It has diversified its products and services, such as digital mapping, online platforms, mobile apps, and geospatial data. Today, O.S. is one of the world's leading mapping agencies, aiming to provide the most up-to-date and comprehensive geospatial information about Great Britain.## ### INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note.

The map is centred on Swiss Cottage, with its underground station, New College (a training college for dissenting ministers), and School for the Blind. The map also covers West Hampstead, and the area of south and west Hampstead developed as part of the Maryon Wilson estate. It also includes part of the Belsize estate. In the NE of the map is a stretch of Haverstock Hill, including Hampstead Vestry Hall; in the SE corner is part of Primrose Hill, while Edgware Road cuts across the SW corner. Several railways emerge from tunnels on the map, including the LNWR at Loudon Road station, and Metropolitan, Midland and Hampstead Junction at the Finchley Road stations. Principal roads include Priory Road, Finchley Road, Fitzjohns Avenue, Eton Avenue, Adelaide Avenue and many more. The 1871 map shows an area which is still largely undeveloped north of Swiss Cottage. This map includes extracts from an early street directory for Adelaide Road, Belsize Road/Square, Finchley New Rd, Loudon Road. The 1937 map, by contrast, shows the area entirely built up. A selection of street directory entries on the reverse includes Belsize Avenue/Crescent/Grove/Lane, Elsworthy Road, Finchley Road, Fitzjohns Avenue, Greencroft Gardens.
