Ordnance Survey Map – Radstock 1902

This detailed map provides good coverage of Radstock and the surrounding area. Coverage stretches east to include Writhlington and west beyond Middle Pit Colliery and Wells Road. Features include Radstock town centre with its busy railway lines, the Collieries of Tyning, Ludlow’s, Upper Writhlington and Lower Writhlington, St Nicholas’s Church, St Mary Magdalen’s Church, Tramway, Radstock Mill, and Brewery.        We do not think of Somerset as an industrial county, but the Radstock map is certainly an industrial one, with its 4 collieries, 2 wagon works, complex of railways, and miners’ housing on the hillside.
