Experience a unique connection to the past with our bespoke old map of Guildford. As you hold this map, imagine the stories, the landscapes, and the lives that unfolded in this historic town. Whether for yourself, a history enthusiast, or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, this map offers a tangible link to the past, perfectly capturing the essence of Guildford through time. It allows you to see your personal touch amidst the town's rich historical narrative, adding a deeply personal layer to the experience.

Guildford's map might reveal the areas that now host the magnificent Guildford Castle or the serene River Wey, both of which have historical roots in the town. You could imagine the vicinity of the historic Guildford Cathedral or the charming High Street, known for its cobbled path and iconic architecture. The map may also cover where the ancient ruins of St. Catherine’s Chapel stand or the grounds of the Guildford Museum, preserving centuries of local history.

Our maps are entirely personalisable. Choose the heart of the map to be your home or a cherished spot in Guildford. Highlight significant locations with symbols or text, perhaps where you first met a loved one or where an unforgettable event took place. Add a dedication message, perhaps a quote or a personal message, and tailor the title and subtitle to reflect your individual story, making each map truly unique and meaningful.

Our Guildford map is sourced from original Ordnance Survey maps, ranging from the 1870s to the 1960s. These maps are celebrated for their artistic charm and detailed accuracy, initially created to deliver precise geographical data. The 6-inch and 1:10,000 OS map series are particularly noted for their detail and beauty, offering a captivating exploration of Guildford's past, allowing you to trace the town's evolution through the Victorian era and beyond.

Please note you are purchasing a fully customised old map. Modern landmarks, such as your house, may not have been built yet! You can contact me to check if a certain location, landmark or feature is shown on this map.

Generally, larger maps look much better than smaller maps, because you can enjoy all of the smaller details. If you need a smaller map, I would suggest ‘zooming in’ so that the map covers a smaller area.

Because these maps are custom made to order, we can make you a map that looks great at at any size, from very small (8x10in/20x25cm) all the way to a few metres. If you are looking for a very large map, please get in touch.

The model in the listing images is holding the 18x24in (45x60cm) version of this map.

Every map can be personalised or customised, for example if you want to mark your house or street on the map. The fifth listing image shows an example of my map personalisation service.

This personalised map would make a wonderful housewarming, birthday, Christmas, Father's Day, Mother’s Day, wedding anniversary or work leaving gift for someone from Guildford, or someone who works there.

This map is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or on artist’s cotton canvas. Several frame choices are available for free, or custom framing is available for an additional fee. Please get in touch if you’re looking to order a very large map for a hotel or office, or if you’re looking for a size that isn’t available on my shop.
