Double-sided Wall map of North & South Scotland at 1:316, 800 (5 miles to 1 inch) from Geographers` A-Z Map Company for traditionalists who prefer their maps drawn at scales corresponding to the imperial measurements of miles to inches, with colourful presentation of topography & hill heights in feet. Presentation of the topography varies slightly, from bold altitude colouring in older editions to slightly gentler colours enhanced by relief shading on more recent maps, both very effectively showing the more hilly or mountainous parts of the country. All maps have spot heights shown in feet. The colouring of the road network clearly distinguishes between primary routes & other A roads for route planning, with B roads also easy to follow on all backgrounds. Smaller country roads are less clear to see, with the publishers recommending their alternative series for more detailed local coverage. Railway lines are included & shown with stations, but at times difficult to find. British national grid lines are overprinted on the cartography & a separate booklet is supplied containing the index to cities, towns, villages, hamlets & locations.* *IMPORTANT
- PLEASE NOTE: many place names & all additional tourist information is in very small lettering, requiring good eyesight or a magnifying glass.*
