Question about OS Maps
Question about OS Maps
I live in an area that is in between two cities (Nottingham and Derby). The OS Map cutoff lines is pretty much exactly where I live, meaning that both maps are relevant to me. My nearest city is Derby, as it's the one I know most areas of, but I'm unsure which map to get. Shall I buy them both? I'd rather not do that. What do you do in situations such as this?

If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong
Lack of planning on your part doesn't make it an emergency on mine

Re: Question about OS Maps
I would buy a 1:25 000 scale and 1:50 000 scale of the area you live. I have them for my area,lumille wrote: ↑Wed Mar 18, 2020 9:44 pm I live in an area that is in between two cities (Nottingham and Derby).

The 1 in 50 000 is to get me home, the 1 in 25 000 is marked/highlighted with fruit trees, underground bunkers, allotments etc
Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.
