Can anyone advise me of a web address ( if there is one ) where I can view maps. I am wanting to view map of Sunk Island - Near Hull East Yorkshire, around the 1800s. I know I can view them at the library - but is there anything on the internet ??? Thank You

try www(.)old-maps(.)co(.)uk remove brackets they will only be from the 1880s to 90s can be a little earlier sometimes but if it did not change much you may get an idea of the area
