Does anyone on the list possess the set of Ordinance Survey maps of England, Scotland & Wales of about 1900, I'm trying to map the Roman roads described by Thomas Codrington in his book "Roman Roads in Britain" published in 1903. He makes frequent reference to "the new OS map" in his descriptions.

I'm hoping to find shape files, MapInfo files or scans of the sheets and happy to contribute around $AU100 (current exchange rate hovers around ₤1.00 = $AU1.50) to the cost of scanning the set. (I may be able to go higher if needed)

If this is off-topic I apologize and 

NO I DO NOT PLAN TO ADD THIS HISTORIC CONTENT TO THE MAP I plan to server it myself.
