A wooden coaster featuring Bartholomew's distinctive Half-Inch mapping of Harlech and the surrounding area.

What this map covers

This view of Harlech also covers Llandanwg, Pentre Gwynfryn and Ynys.

About this map

This artwork is cropped from Sheet 11 · North Wales, 1904, focusing the original cartography around Harlech 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. The interest is often in the regional pattern: how a town relates to neighbouring places, transport routes, water, and higher ground.

Bartholomew drew on more detailed Ordnance Survey material, selecting and supplementing information for its own cartographic purpose; complete Half-Inch coverage of Great Britain was achieved in 1903. Road information and coloured relief were deliberately prominent, giving these maps a clearer travelling-map character than denser large-scale survey sheets. This particular source was published in 1904.

A note on map detail

The original map was printed at approximately 1:127,000. This artwork is reproduced at approximately 1:99,000, around 1.3× larger, making the original cartography and place names easier to see.

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.
