Just been told of a great resource for checking out old maps with late 19th to mid 60's in some detail.

Interesting to see the fact that there were 2 dwellings at the top of the 2 acre plot in 1878. We knew this but this shows the fact. Also showing our cottage there which we know was built circa 300-400 years ago. It was the first and only dwelling in that area at that point it was built. Three of my four neighbours didn't exist back then and only one did in 1878.
Very interesting to see.
