Although many old OS maps are readily available from second-hand bookshops, charity shops, internet auctions and specialist dealers, some significant maps are rarely found outside the national copyright libraries. The Society has embarked on producing a series of reprints of such maps to make them more accessible and allow them to be better appreciated. Each reprint is carefully chosen for their historic or cartographic interest and visual appeal. Each is accompanied by expert essays about the map itself and where it fits into the OS story.

An Historical Map of Cambridge, University and County Town. Published 2023 by the Historical Towns Trust. ISBN 9781838071950
Researched and compiled by Elizabeth Baigent and Tony Kirby, with cartography by Giles Darkes and Tim Goodfellow, the map is no. 16 in their Town and City Historical Maps series. It gives an overview of the history and topography of the city, showing the many layers of occupation over the centuries, from the Roman period onwards. Roads, the river, markets and famous fairs, religious houses, and from the 13th century the university, created a complex web of activities, interests, and settlers. College and University buildings now dominate the townscape, but Cambridge also has a wide range of civic and public buildings and churches built for the town’s population.
This map is not part of the 2 for 1 offer on the Society's maps.
