Thank you for your suggestions Lindsey, Mick and George. I'll have a look tomorrow when I'm wide awake. Goodnight all.

This one Ive recently used for old ordnance survey maps

You have to pay for them but very interesting to see all the adverts cost £2.25p each

Can anyone recommend good websites where you can view old maps of towns,villages and parishes please?

I know there was a really good one I used when I first started genealogy but I can't remember the name.
