Hull Alexandra Dock 1908

Hull Alexandra Dock in 1908 in a fascinating series of reproductions of old Ordnance Survey plans in the Alan Godfrey Editions, ideal for anyone interested in the history of their neighbourhood or family. The dominant feature on the map is the Alexandra Dock, opened in 1885 in association with the new Hull & Barnsley Railway. The map also covers the area along the Hedon Road, from Hotham Street eastward to Marfleet Lane, and includes much of the village of Marfleet (but not its church). Other features include Hedon Road Cemetery, Drypool & Southcoates Cemetery, Jews Burial Ground, Sanatorium, Prison (blank for security reasons), a stretch of the NER Withernsea Branch, St Bartholomew church, and the `New Town` area around Lee Smith Street. The dock is shown in detail, with railway tracks, Alexandra Dock station, graving docks, engine shed, jetties, etc. A directory for Hedon Road and Alexandra Dock is included, together with one for Marfleet. About the Alan Godfrey Editions of the 25″ OS Series:Selected towns in Great Britain and Ireland are covered by maps showing the extent of urban development in the last decades of the 19th and early 20th century. The plans have been taken from the Ordnance Survey mapping and reprinted at about 15 inches to one mile (1:4,340).

Most maps cover about one mile (1.6kms) north/south, one and a half miles (2.4kms) across; adjoining sheets can be combined to provide wider coverage.FOR MORE INFORMATION AND A COMPLETE LIST OF ALL AVAILABLE TITLES PLEASE CLICK ON THE SERIES LINK.
