Crafted with precision, these maps are brought to life using the giclée printing technique on archival-grade paper or artist's cotton canvas, ensuring vivid colours and longevity. Choose from a variety of framing options, from sleek acrylite glazing to elegant FSC-certified wood frames, or indulge in a "float framed" stretched canvas for a sophisticated finish that complements any décor.

The maps are meticulously derived from original Ordnance Survey maps, renowned for their detailed craftsmanship and accuracy. Historically, these maps were created to provide comprehensive geographical data across the United Kingdom. The 6-inch and 1:10,000 series, particularly from the Victorian era, offer a captivating view into Corby’s development, capturing the town’s changing landscape with their exquisite detail and aesthetic appeal.

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 Corby, 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.
