Personalised Old Map of Luton

Embark on a captivating journey through the rich tapestry of Luton's history with our personalised old map. This bespoke creation allows you to explore the evolution of your cherished town from a unique perspective, making it an ideal gift for history enthusiasts, new homeowners, or anyone with a deep connection to Luton. Whether displayed in your living room or given as a thoughtful present, this map provides a window into the past, bridging personal stories with the town's historical landscape.

Trace the origins of Luton before the modern day, with areas encompassing the vicinity of the landmark Luton Hoo or the longstanding St Mary's Church, which stands as a testament to Luton's enduring heritage. Imagine the landscape surrounding the bustling area of the Mall Luton or the picturesque Wardown Park before they took their current forms. The map could also highlight the grounds near the Stockwood Park and the sites where the vibrant High Town now thrives.

Our maps are entirely personalisable, allowing you to place the heart of the map on your home or any location that bears significance. You can mark notable sites, add a heartfelt dedication message, or even personalise the map's title and subtitle to reflect personal memes or shared memories. Each map is crafted with the utmost care, ensuring it becomes a treasured keepsake.

Every map is produced with exceptional quality, printed using the giclée technique on archival-grade paper or artist's cotton canvas. This ensures the map's longevity and vibrant visual clarity. You can choose from various framing options, including premium acrylite glazing with an FSC-certified wood frame, or opt for a "float framed" stretched canvas for a more sophisticated finish.

Your personalised map of Luton is crafted from authentic Ordnance Survey maps, dating from the 1870s to the 1960s. Renowned for their detailed and artistic charm, these maps were initially created to provide precise geographical information across the UK. Our maps predominantly use the 6-inch and 1:10,000 series, admired for their aesthetic appeal and meticulous detail, allowing you to explore Luton's historical fabric with remarkable accuracy.

Please note you are purchasing a fully customised old map. Modern landmarks, such as your house, may not have been built yet! You can contact me to check if a certain location, landmark or feature is shown on this map.

Generally, larger maps look much better than smaller maps, because you can enjoy all of the smaller details. If you need a smaller map, I would suggest ‘zooming in’ so that the map covers a smaller area.

Because these maps are custom made to order, we can make you a map that looks great at at any size, from very small (8x10in/20x25cm) all the way to a few metres. If you are looking for a very large map, please get in touch.

The model in the listing images is holding the 18x24in (45x60cm) version of this map.

Every map can be personalised or customised, for example if you want to mark your house or street on the map. The fifth listing image shows an example of my map personalisation service.

This personalised map would make a wonderful housewarming, birthday, Christmas, Father's Day, Mother’s Day, wedding anniversary or work leaving gift for someone from Luton, or someone who works there.

This map is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or on artist’s cotton canvas. Several frame choices are available for free, or custom framing is available for an additional fee. Please get in touch if you’re looking to order a very large map for a hotel or office, or if you’re looking for a size that isn’t available on my shop.
