They are more rigid & heavier than laminated maps of the same size. They are damp-proof & do not crinkle in humid conditions.

The north-east of Scotland is one of the least known areas of the country but has an architectural heritage as rich as the Highlands & Angus with which it shares its borders. This volume is the first of two to illuminate its buildings & covers not only the historic districts of Formartine, Buchan & Banff in Aberdeenshire but also the whole of Moray. In this region is some of Scotland`s finest medieval ecclesiastical architecture, most notably the ruins of Elgin Cathedral, as well as major ruined castles & country houses such as Brodie Castle, Fyvie Castle, Haddo House & Duff House. It is an area intimately related to the sea, especially enchanting along the Moray Firth, with many highly picturesque former fishing villages clinging to the rugged coast. Fraserburgh & Peterhead have a long history of rivalry as harbours, expressed in the quality of their nineteenth churches & public buildings, while Banff & Elgin boast civic & commercial architecture befitting their status as county towns. Inland is deep, sparse country, separated & sheltered from the rest of Scotland by the Grampian & Cairngorm Mountains, in which are numerous planned towns & villages. Cutting through the landscape are rivers including the Don, Deveron &
- most famous of all
- the Spey, its banks supporting some of the most famous distilleries in Scotl&.

A detailed topographic map of Aberystwyth & Cwm Rheidol from the Ordnance Survey Explorer series, covering Devil's Bridge. Edition A1 with minor changes; Publication date October 2011 About this series: These highly detailed maps show all the administrative boundaries, settlements as small as isolated farms, the road network down to unfenced roads & country tracks, & field boundaries (hedges & drystone walls) which make navigation across the countryside much easier. Steep gradients on roads are indicated. Various landmarks, e.g. powerlines, archaeological sites, windmills, churches & lighthouses are shown & additional graphics indicate natural terrain features such as cliffs, scree, mud & vegetation variations.

The Explorer series has replaced the earlier, green-cover Pathfinder maps. The Explorer series is now complete & covers all of Engl&, Wales & Scotl&.

This series is ideal for walking & other outdoor pursuits & each map shows a large amount of information for ramblers & tourists. Public rights of way are shown (except in Scotland), together with other routes with public access: National Trails & Recreational Paths, permitted paths & bridleways, & selected cycle routes.
