A Brief History of the Ordnance Survey Photo Club
Founded in 1953, the Ordnance Survey Photographic Society (OSPS) formed in the environment of Britain's national mapping agency. At that time, maps were more an art form than the geographic information systems they have become, so there were many artistically creative and like-minded individuals in one place.
A founding member of the Southern Photographic Federation, OSPS grew and evolved to a peak membership of 125 in the mid 1980s, with notable competition success at regional and national level from the late 80s through to the turn of the century.
OSPS held its first meetings at the London Road office, before moving to the Maybush site in 1969 and to the current location at Adanac Park in 2010.
Though never a large club, OSPS members have included amateurs and professionals, many holding various photographic distinctions from such bodies as the RPS, BIPP and FIAP. Many have also been successful exhibitors at local, national and international level. But regardless of skills, achievements or changes in technology, the common factors have always been a curiosity about, and appreciation of, the many facets of photography.
