Want to know what your neighbourhood looked like in the 19th century? We've made it easier to find out by adding a date filter for some of the Ordnance Survey maps on our Find by Place viewer: https://maps.nls.uk/geo/find/#zoom=
(With thanks to @natlibscotmaps)

You can pre-order my new book, Tracing Your Scottish Family History on the Internet, at http://bit.ly/ChrisPaton-Scottish2 (out April). Also available, Tracing Your Irish Family History on the Internet (2nd ed) at http://bit.ly/ChrisPaton-Irish1 and Tracing Your Scottish Ancestry Through Church and State Records at http://bit.ly/ChrisPaton-Scotland1. Further news published daily on The Scottish GENES Facebook page, and on Twitter @genesblog.
That's a great addition to this already amazing service from the NLS...I did note, however, that the date sliders don't display properly in the Opera browser, but are fine in Firefox.
