A historic view of Abersoch in Bartholomew's distinctive Half-Inch mapping, reproduced as a wooden coaster.

What this map covers

This view of Abersoch also takes in Llangïan, Llanengan and Mynytho, with Pen-y-gaer and Bryn Llanengan among the surrounding landmarks.

About this map

This artwork is cropped from Sheet 11 · North Wales, 1904, focusing the original cartography around Abersoch rather than reproducing the complete historic sheet.

Its 1:126,720 scale, two miles to the inch, sits between detailed local survey mapping and much smaller national maps. Bartholomew's Half-Inch maps were made as practical regional maps, keeping towns, roads, railways, and the physical landscape readable across a generous stretch of country.

Complete coverage of Great Britain was achieved by 1903, and the series became closely associated with touring and cycling in the early twentieth century. The interest is often in the regional pattern: how a town relates to neighbouring places, transport routes, water, and higher ground. This particular source was published in 1904.

A note on map detail

Historic map detail varies with product size and material. Use the listing close-ups as your guide to the exact crop and level of detail.

  • Colours may print slightly warmer because of the base material.
