The series of maps are based on the tithe surveys of the mid 19th. Century, supplemented by enclosure and estate surveys.
They give as full a view of the area as sources will allow, including field names, land uses, ancient boundaries and buildings. Lists of landowners are supplied with the A1 maps where possible.

The maps are available in various formats:

 

1. A1 black and white copies for research, at a scale of 6 inches to 1 mile

2. A3 hand-drawn and coloured in ink and ink wash on tinted card with appropriate lettering and title, usually at a scale of 8 inches to 1 mile, individually commissioned and centred on a chosen location (to form decorative and informative works of art)

3. Hand-drawn & coloured maps of individual parishes or townships in ink and ink wash on tinted card with appropriate lettering and title, at scales varying from 6 to 8.5 inches to 1 mile.

4. Colour copies of maps already produced are sometimes available
