The beautiful and highly detailed 1834 map of St Marylebone has undergone a major redesign:
Topographical Survey Of The Borough Of St. Marylebone 1834
Do take a look at the improved display of this wonderful rare map. It is a lovely item!
Look out for more 'MAPCO Revised' maps in coming months.

Stanford’s Library Map Of London And Its Suburbs
MAPCO's current big project is another copy of Stanford’s Library Map Of London And Its Suburbs, this time from the 1870s.
The scans were completed and digitally prepared for display in January. The web pages are currently being prepared, and place names are being transcribed from the map images.
This will be the third copy of Stanford's London map displayed on the MAPCO website, which, along with Weller's 1868 map of London, provide a wonderful snapshot of the Metropolis throughout the 1860s and 1870s.
Work restrictions make progress on some map projects quite slow, but I am optimistic that this map should be on display by the end of March.

Map of Sydney 1854
MAPCO is currently working on Woolcott & Clarke's Map Of The City Of Sydney, With The Environs Of Balmain And Glebe, Chippendale Redfern, Paddington &c. (W.H. Baron Del. ; Engd. by J. Carmichael. Sydney. 1854.)
Digital restoration work is almost complete, and work will commence on the display web pages in the next few weeks.
This is a rare map that was saved during a renovation project in Surrey Hills. It is lucky to have survived.
I look forward to bringing this map to you soon.
