Just a brief note to publicise our latest website addition of a georeferenced layer of OS six-inch mapping for England and Wales, 1888-1913.
The layer can be enjoyed as an overlay and in a split-screen viewer:

We made the main set of these maps available as individual sheets back in March ( http://maps.nls.uk/os/6inch-england-and-wales/index.html ), but have been working on seaming together this layer of 11,739 sheets, largely of 1st revision / 2nd edition mapping, since then.
