The map reveals the historical landscape of Ealing, long before many of its modern features took shape. It encompasses the areas now home to the iconic Ealing Town Hall and the bustling Ealing Broadway. You’ll see the elegant Walpole Park, the leafy surrounds of Pitshanger Manor, and the historic St Mary's Church, reflecting the roots of the community. These locations, already significant even in Victorian times, offer a glimpse into the evolution of this vibrant part of West London.

Your Ealing map is fully personalisable, tailored to your exact wishes. Centre the map on your family home, a favourite park, or a place of special significance.

Your map is reproduced from original Ordnance Survey sheets, spanning from the 1870s through the 1960s. The OS was renowned for its meticulous field surveys and distinctive cartography, resulting in maps celebrated for their aesthetic appeal and exceptional accuracy. These historical maps not only document Ealing’s transformation—from rural fields to suburban heartland—but also serve as beautiful artefacts in their own right, preserving the intricate details and character of a bygone era for you to explore and enjoy.

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 Borough of Ealing, 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.
