Newry 1903

Co Down Sheet 46.16 Newry 1903 - published 2006; intro by Alan Godfrey. This very detailed map covers the city of Newry at the beginning of the 20th century, and although the OS published it in their Co Down series, the map does extend westward into the Co Armagh part of the town and as far as the Urban District boundary. Our map is double-sided for maximum coverage and includes Sheet 46.15. Features include the Newry Canal, Merchants Quay, Albert Basin, Dublin Bridge station, Bridge Street station, Edward Street station, Bessbrook & Newry tramway terminus, Cathedral, St Patrick's church, St Mary's church, St Catherine's church, markets, Town Hall, Downshire House. Map extends east about a mile to Temple Hill, Creeve House. With its railways and canal (shown in detail, with railway tracks, cranes, turntable etc) the map will have especial interest to transport historians as well as those interested in the history of Newry.

Reduced from the original Ordnance Survey 1:2,500 map to a scale of approximately 1:4,340 (or about 15" to the mile). This edition published by Alan Godfrey Maps, Leadgate, Consett
