Maps & Mapping.

The first maps for Co. Roscommon date to the 1600's. These were produced for plantation purposes. It was not until the 18th and 19th. century that mapping as a discipline began to form and maps began to take on their distinctive shape and format. There have been many maps produced for Co. Roscommon.

This link is dedicated to maps about Roscommon. We hope to develop it over time to show how mapping developed across the county. In the meantime we use it to show some of the maps that exist for the county.
