- particularly good for indentifying scenic routes. The whole country is shown on one side of the map, with coverage extending south to include Newcastle & most of the Lake District. Enlargement show the Glasgow area (1:200, 000) & main roads across Edinburgh (1:100, 000). The map also shows locations with street plans in Michelin’s Red Guide to Hotels & Restaurants in Britain & in their Green Guide to Scotl&. Topography of Scotland is very effectively indicated by relief shading with names of mountain ranges, valleys, peaks, etc, plus spot heights & colouring of forests & other wooded areas. Boundaries of national parks are marked. Special features provided in the presentation of road network include highlighting of scenic roads, more detailed gradient markings than found on most similar maps, height restrictions for bridges, load limits, & driving distances on main roads given in both miles & kilometres. Within Scotl&, narrow roads with passing places are indicated. Railway lines & ferry routes are included. Places of interest indicated by symbols are less numerous or prominently marked than on other map series, but the maps do indicate locations with street plans in Michelin’s annual Red Guide to Hotels & Restaurants in Britain, as well as principal sights in their Green Guide to Scotl&. The map has latitude & longitude lines at intervals of 20’. The index plus a distance/driving times table are next to the map.PLEASE NOTE: this title is also available from Stanfords in a waterproof & tear-resistant laminated version.
