Maps of Dublin

Hi,

Im wondering does anyone know of where i could source a map of dublin showing the different centuries and the growth of the city, so from viking era, to normans etc etc to present day?

Preferably on line, but if there is a book that i can get my hands on that would be great too?

Thanks

Thanks, quite an interesting site. ..

Not quite what I'm looking for though, I probably wasn't specific enough, i'm looking for a map(s) that show the spread of Dublin, so from its beginnings then the gradual creep over the centuries, your link does this but im looking for something with more detail. I thought some body might know of a catalogue online that you can view or a book. But thanks for that anyway, much appreciated

This isn't exactly what you're looking for as it doesn't go back far enough but there are some interesting old maps: Historic Maps of Dublin City and Historic Maps of County Dublin

National Library sell a nice set of replicas, Viking times, 1610, 1756 etc.
