About this map
This artwork is cropped from Sheet 1 · Wigtown, 1901, focusing the original cartography around Loch Ken rather than reproducing the complete historic sheet.
The maps were not simple reductions of Ordnance Survey sheets: Bartholomew selected and added information, including route categories useful to travellers. 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.
The interest is often in the regional pattern: how a town relates to neighbouring places, transport routes, water, and higher ground. The series is especially recognisable for its layer colouring, with greens across lower ground and browns and paler tones used as elevation rises. This particular source was published in 1901.
