Historic Map

Custom (site-centred) map based upon our high quality historic 6" and 25" mapping.

Between 1829 and 1842 Tailte Éireann, then Ordnance Survey Ireland, conducted the first ever large-scale survey of an entire country. Acclaimed for their accuracy and comprehensive attention to detail, these maps are regarded by cartographers as amongst the finest ever produced, anywhere. As the national mapping archive service for Ireland, Tailte Éireann has captured this and later mapping data in a digitised format. These maps are particularly relevant for genealogy or those with an interest in social history.
