The large scale plans of the Ordnance Survey are quite
unique. In a clear and attractive manner they have portrayed our towns and villages in detail over the last 150 years. They show not just the streets but virtually every house; the complete track layouts of railways and tramways are given; factories, mills and docks are all shown. The maps contain all the fascinating minutiae that is the lifeblood of history and have become the most complete record of the places where our ancestors lived and worked.

The Godfrey Edition is a major undertaking to reprint these maps, in a convenient and ffordable form, for towns throughout Britain and Ireland. This map of the eastern half of Helensburgh, including Craigendoran, will delight local historians, genealogists, transport historians and all who are interested in the area's past. It includes an introduction by Dr Gilbert T Bell.

More than 1,900 maps have been published in this series, and other titles in the area include maps for Barrhead, Clydebank, Dumbarton, Greenock (2 maps), Neilston, Paisley, Port Glasgow, Renfrew (2 maps) and Wemyss Bay, together with an extensive group for Glasgow.

You can clearly see, on this old map, where the old Ferry Cottage and pier were.
