Scotland at 1:316, 800 (5 miles to 1 inch) on a double-sided road map from A-Z. Coverage extends south to Blackpool & York, to include the Lake District & Yorkshire Dales, but the map has no overlap between the sides. The index is in a separate booklet attached to the map cover. Current edition of this title was published in 2015. Maps in this “ Five miles to 1 inch” series from A-Z show areas above 400 feet (122 metres) & woodlands by colouring & relief shading; spot heights are in feet. The colouring of the road network clearly distinguishes between primary routes & other A roads, with B roads also easy to follow on all backgrounds. The maps are primarily designed for route planning, so smaller country roads are perhaps less clear to see, with the publishers recommending their alternative series for more detailed local coverage (please search for SI00000215 or SI00000882). Railway lines are included & shown with stations, but at times difficult to find. A wide range of symbols highlight numerous places of interest. Each map has British National Grid lines & is indexed.
