Heya,
Does anyone know where I could find a map of London in the mid 1800's online? Especially one that's copyright free? :)
Peace,

There's some stuff up at
Dickens' London page
and lots
on this page of maps
. FWIW when googling, UK historians and archivists are most likely to refer to maps from the 1800s as '
19th century
', or '
19C
'.

Hey Troy,
The Bolles collection atlas at the Perseus Project is awesome:

Also some nice feature maps at PCL:

Hey- I may not be able to help much with the maps of london (at least further than the sites already given which I am familiar with already) however, I am a big fan of the 1800's and 1700's and may be able to assist you in your project. That is a truly fascinating time for history, and besides which, the dress sense was pretty cool too!! :) email me if you like at
micahsicotte@yahoo.ca
and we can discuss further.
