Leicestershire Parish Map
« on: Saturday 02 February 19 12:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place. Is anyone able to send me a printable version of a parish map for Leicestershire, or let me know where I can download a good sized version? I have seen some online but they are either small or require payment.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Matt

This will take you to Parish maps , Leicestershire is first one available to download.
The download comes as a zip file containing a PDF map plus two text files of legal conditions about usage, nothing onerous I hasten to add.
Active links are now (after 13/04/2018) indicated by bold red italics. Just click on them.
The only stupid question is the one not asked

Thanks for that. I just had a look and it definitely gives me something to work with.

If you have access to Ancestry, they have digitised copies of the county parish maps produced by Phillimores - https://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=8830.  Its titled "Great Britain, Atlas and Index of Parish Registers" but the browse option on the right hand side allows you to select each of the county maps showing parishes.
