Other People's Webpages - Historical Maps

AWB, while definitely not procrastinating on other project, managed to stumble across this rather interesting site earlier in the afternoon.

http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/

While we confess not having spent massive amounts of time exploring all the gems of info hidden within this site's pages, the section of the most historical interest for the common or garden wargamer would seem to be the 'Historical Maps' section. The scales and coverage varies and is, with a few exceptions, only over the British Isles, but if you are looking for a 19th Century map of England and Wales at 1:63360 (1 inch to the mile) in order to plan your next time travelling adventure then this is probably the best (only?) place to look.
