What happened to the NLS layers?

Hopefully this is the right place to ask.

What happened to the NLS layers in iD for the United Kingdom? In particular I'd like to see the return of "NLS - OS 1:25k 1st Series 1937-61" which I've been using to trace the Thirlmere Aqueduct.

"OS 1:25k historic (OSM)" which is still available to select as a layer is useless as it is just a black screen.

We filter out the historic layers from iD..
see openstreetmap/iD#3453 for discussion

In this particular case, I think you want https://ooc.openstreetmap.org/os1/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.jpg as a custom layer. Happy mapping!

I can't get this to work (just a black background), but thanks anyway.

For anyone else looking for the NLS layers, they're available in JOSM.

Ah! I'd gotten the wrong first series. Try https://geo.nls.uk/mapdata2/os/25000/{zoom}/{x}/{-y}.png then.

That works! Thanks 😄
