It is also accessible through the London Map page at the MAPCO website.

This is the third of MAPCO's copies of Stanford's Library Map of London to be displayed. An overview comparison of the 3 maps can be viewed here, each with a pop-up of a map from another year when you hover your mouse over the image. Take a look, and hover your mouse over the images (hover in and out to swap the images back and forth). Click the image to advance to the next years, and click the map title to return to the 1872 map home page.

These are also accessible from the map home page. It works best with the 1872 and 1878 maps, as they are trimmed and mounted in the same way.

Enjoy this latest high quality map of London.

Kind regards,
