Coronelli's map of the mythical island of Frisland

We've recently updated our Gift Map range, with a new selection of maps from £60 - £250.  Browse this selection using the button on the right - highlights include illustrated and uncommon maps of British counties, and detailed plans of popular holiday destinations such as Paris and Pompeii.

Original antique maps dating from the fifteenth century onwards are not just found in museums, but may be bought and collected without costing the earth.  Our maps can be purchased directly from this website. 

You can even buy maps of places which we now know don't exist - such as this detailed map of the island of Frisland, near Greenland. [30955].

You can view our latest catalogue, with a great range of fascinating maps, by clicking 'Latest Catalogue' in the right-hand menu, or download the PDF version from our latest publications on the left.

Alternatively, please do feel free to visit our Gallery in George Street.

Please browse and search our website to select antique maps of all areas of Britain and the world, including our Gift Map range of items priced under £250. You can also take a Virtual Tour of the gallery from our website, explore our stock and get a feel for how one of our maps would look on your wall.
