Ordnance Survey and Landmark Information Group: Historic Mapping (3rd Party Data)
Historical Map Data is owned and supplied by Landmark Information Group and Ordnance Survey (OS) and supplied to Natural Resource Wales (NRW) via an OS licence. Landmark Information Group Limited holds the most extensive digital collection of historical Ordnance Survey mapping of Great Britain.

Historical mapping provides a unique insight into our past and is a fascinating journey through history in itself. Particularly when displayed with contemporary mapping or aerial photography. Historical Map Data is available for different time periods, referred to as epochs. Epoch 1: the first County Series survey; published dates 1843 to 1893 Epoch 2: the first County Series revision; published dates 1891 to 1912 Epoch 3: the second County Series revision; published dates 1904 to 1939 Epoch 4: the third County Series revision; published dates 1919 to 1939
