    need some help

    i have a project for school and i need a map of london in 1868 (c). It needs to show victoria's station, inns of court, the temple, lincoln's inn, the exchequer and the queen's beach.

    anything could be helpful. a lowly pic or link could be useful

    thanks

    Might I suggest typing those names into google and then press images, you never know what might turn up.

    If you need a map in 1868 and are asking in 2008, then why did you wait 140 years before asking for help?

    Google sounds like the way to go.

    Believe it or not, all of those buildings are still right where they were 140 years ago, despite the London congestion charge! Unless you are looking for specific streets which may no longer exist, a modern map will probably work just fine.
