Tidworth 1936

Detailed map of Tidworth; Hants sheet 14.15 Double-sided map; includes part of 22.03. Historical introduction by Tony Painter. This very detailed map crosses the Wilts/Hants border and is also Wiltshire Sheet 48.15. It will be of unusual interest to family historians, for countless hundreds of relatives will have lived here briefly while on military service. Our map is double-sided to provide maximum coverage. The main map covers the area from North Tidworth and North Manor House southward to South Tidworth and Ashdown House. Features include much of Tidworth Barracks, including Bhurtpore Barracks, Candahar Barracks, Delhi Military Hospital, Jellalabad Barracks, Isolation Hospital, St Michael's church, Hampshire Cross, Lucknow Barracks, Mooltan Barracks, Clarendon Hill, rifle ranges, riding school, officers messes, station, military railway running through the barracks and sidings into an unnamed (ammunition?) depot, Holy Trinity church. On the reverse we include part of sheet 23.03 and this extends coverage south to include Tidworth (or Tedworth) House and part of Tidworth Park. Tony Painter provides a lucid history of Tidworth, through the growth of the Tidworth Estate to the continuing development of today's major military complex.
