Rhayader Queen Victoria's reign saw the first
properly surveyed
maps being published. The Ordnance Survey
is the government department which undertakes this work. The
church authorities also had maps made which can tell us a lot about early
Victorian times. Choose from the list below. You may
find it useful to compare these old maps with a modern Ordnance Survey
map of the same area to see what changes have occurred. Unfortunately
we cannot put these on our website.
