Does anyone know if the above maps can be found online? I mean the
very detailed street maps rather than the bus stop maps.


Some seem to be accessible from the Interactive Map at:

A huge thanks, Dave! I didn't get your message itself, so thanks also to
Marc for quoting it.

Thanks for that link - all very useful.

Although, on the Chancery Lane map alone, there are so many mistakes
as to be quite amusing!


If you want a real laugh, ask the TfL Journey Planner for a walking route
from the middle of Brownlow Street to the middle of Plumtree Court. I told
them months ago, but they never seem to fix anything.

The main vehicular access from Holborn into Gray's Inn is shown as a
footpath.


obligatory nitpick of nitpicker
Anyone who has worked there for twenty years should know the boundary
between Holborn and High Holborn is Grays Inn Road! ;-)

The taxi rank in High Holborn is shown, but not the one at the gateway
to Lincoln's Inn.


On the TfL multimodal map, ranks are only shown if there is a decent chance
of finding a cab there most of the time..... does that apply here?

Most curiously, Holborn seems to have acquired a new road into
Whetstone Place called Holborn Place! There is no vehicular access
South of High Holborn of any description between Chancery Lane and
Kingsway!


Holborn Place is the drive of the Renaissance Chancery Court Hotel, and it
does lead from High Holborn to Whetstone Park, but is probably a private
road. Then again, many of the roads shown in this area, such as Grays Inn
Square, are probably private also, so it is reasonable that they would show
it, especially since this is basically a walking map, and I think anyone can
walk through Holborn Place.

Thanks again!
