    3. Hi Gordon I tried John B's instructions using Firefox and could not exactly replicate your problem (however, I did notice that Firefox blocked a popup, so maybe that was the copyright message you received). The icon on the right did nothing at all for me, but I could enlarge the map by using the scale on the left. Hope that helps.

Am I the only one getting this response? I should welcome your comments Gordon (snip) You can also call up a highly detailed (1:10,560-scale) late 19th century map of this area by going to the Old Maps website at http://www.old-maps.co.uk/ On the main page, click on the illustration which states "Click here to begin your search". On the search page which appears, enter 316385 and 266690 into the co-ordinates search fields and click the GO button alongside. When the small map appears, click on the "Enlarge Map" icon on the right-hand tab. A highly detailed map of the area will open in a new window, centred on 'Old Hall' and also showing OldHall Wood and Old Hall Inn.
