[Talk-GB] NLS historical OS plans for grid square TQ

[Ken Kilfedder]

Good morning - 

Are these the maps that were discussed starting here: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2020-October/025312.html ?

Which it was eventually determined would be available at the end of 2022 only?

With a tms address of tms:https://geo.nls.uk/mapdata3/os/ldn_tile/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.png ?

If so, it is a *superb* resource for housenumbers of the older buildings that predominate in some areas.

(I added a lot of house numbers from those maps until it was clarified that they weren't usable; then I removed all those house numbers, and re-added them from actual shoe-leather surveying)
