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

What this map covers

The mapped area around Kingston-upon-Hull includes Hull.

About this map

This artwork is cropped from Sheet 10 · Lincoln Wolds, 1902, focusing the original cartography around Kingston-upon-Hull rather than reproducing the complete historic sheet.

It is a scale particularly suited to following roads and railways between places while still reading coast, rivers, uplands, and the broader shape of the landscape. Two miles are represented by one inch on the map, giving enough reach for a journey or region while keeping individual towns and routes legible.

The series is especially recognisable for its layer colouring, with greens across lower ground and browns and paler tones used as elevation rises. The maps were not simple reductions of Ordnance Survey sheets: Bartholomew selected and added information, including route categories useful to travellers. This particular source was published in 1902.

A note on map detail

The original map was printed at approximately 1:127,000. This artwork is reproduced at approximately 1:100,000, 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.
