The…School Board was formed as a result of the Education Act of 1870 to ensure that every child in the country between the ages of 5 and 13 attended school. The maps were produced to illustrate the locations of existing schools and to show the deficiencies in current school places, as well as where new schools could be located. It is worth noting that the School Board of London only requested 200 sets of Stanfords original 1877 School Board map. These were distributed to School Board members, superintendents of the various London school divisions, school inspectors, and their assistants. Exceptional detail throughout.Overall size approx 71cm x 65cm including margins. Dissected into twelvesections and laid to linen. Condition is exceptional.
