Hi All,
I am pretty new to this but, has anyone any links to be able to view maps of Ilkestone in the 1800's Please.
All the ones I have looked at want you to buy them and I just want to pinpoint various streets etc that seem to no longer exist.
eg. Pewit Wharf, Pewit Walk. Lawn Terrace.
Thank you. :D

Old-Maps is good although a bit tricky to navigate.
