Winchester Maps of the Past
The Library is happy to offer overlays of past city directories onto maps of the present. Each pin is an address of a location from the past. Roads and numbers change over time, but we did our best to adjust the past to the present.
The markers are listed alphabetically by individual/place name. To see all, please click the button to the left of the map title and then select all items. Once that is done, you can search for names by scrolling, or pressing Ctrl + F to search.
