Mapping city, town and country since 1824: the Ordnance Survey in Ireland

This Lunchtime Lecture series was organised by the Royal Irish Academy Library and the Irish Historic Towns Atlas and ran from August to November 2014. The impetus for this lecture series was the Academy’s publication of three OS-related volumes:

Dublin in 1847: city of the Ordnance Survey by Frank Cullen (Dublin, 2015)

Glimpses of Ireland’s past: the Ordnance Survey Memoir drawings: topography and technique by Angélique Day (Dublin, 2014)

Dublin part III: 1756-1847, Irish Historic Towns Atlas, 26 by Rob Goodbody (Dublin, 2014)
