Why these sheets are especially important to Local Historians -
The date given for this map is publication, not survey date. It was not created from contemporary survey data, but was re-drawn in National Grid format from old 1:10,560 scale (6") maps, often many decades old. So it is possible to locate buildings, field boundaries, roads, railways, etc, which had long disappeared when the map was published.
