Map resources

The following maps have been scanned from the Lancaster University Library Map Collection (unless otherwise stated). The jpeg images may be reduced to fit the screen and can usually be enlarged, depending on your browser. The library is able to provide uncompressed original digital files, upon request.

Warning: File sizes for some maps are large, and may download slowly especially on mobile connections. If you right click on the image, and click 'Save Link As' you can save the map and open it in a desktop image viewer, rather than browser, for easier zooming in on details on slower computers.

Note: This area was not officially named Morecambe until 1889, so does not appear on maps before this date. The hamlets of Poulton, Bare and Torrisholme which eventually became what is now Morecambe may be noted instead.
