Can anyone identify the map used by North Yorkshire County Council's online mapping service( historic maps) for the 1846-63 series?

Not sure I understand the question?

It's a map of Northallerton Station and surrounds.

Not sure if this is what you want to know....it's Ordnance Survey County Series 1:2500 [25 inches to the mile] scale of a portion of Northallerton town.

Thanks both.

Sorry, I should have phrased my question less ambiguously.

That North Yorks mapping website automatically centres itself on Northallerton, I'm guessing because that's where the County Council is based. I'm trying to work out what the original source map is.

So it's an O.S. County Series 1:2500 - presumably this would have been published as a series of sheets for the North Riding(?).

Does anyone know what the year of publication was? Or were different sheets published at different years between 1846 and 1863?

I can find references to an 1847-53,  6" map which "pre-dates the 25 inch maps by over 30 years".

Is it possible that it's that 6" map?

The original OS County Series was started in 1840's and obviously took time to complete!
So, I would say that 1843-1863 was the publishing date range of the entire series?

Hi KGarrad. That all makes sense to me.

I've found this on the British History Online website which seems to be the exact same image and confirms it's from 'England - Yorkshire: 028', Ordnance Survey 1:10,560 - Epoch 1 (1856).:

Thanks again.
