Happy Wednesday!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our second stop of the week is at Old Maps Library home county, MIDDLESEX. ❤
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our map is a fine reproduction of Middlesex records market towns and market days, towns where Quarter Sessions are held, towns where County Courts are held, Post Towns, and statistical information relating to London and Middlesex.
By Forster Groom & Co, 1883.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Middlesex was established in the Anglo-Saxon period from the territory of the Middle Saxons. The River Thames was the key to the history of Middlesex. From about 8000 BCE traders and settlers used the Thames as their waterway. During the Iron Age (c. 500 BCE) settlements existed at Brentford and Heathrow.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Nowadays, most of Middlesex, for administrative purposes, became part of Greater London in 1965. ⏳Old Maps Library specialises in the reprint of Vintage Maps and Illustrations between the 17th to 19th centuries. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⏳ We have a beautiful collection of Old Maps and Vintage Illustrations on our website. Link on our bio. .
