About this map
This artwork is cropped from Sheet 37 · Cornwall, 1903, focusing the original cartography around Newquay 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. The Half-Inch series was designed to make a wide area useful to the traveller, showing how settlements, routes, and terrain fitted together rather than concentrating on property-level detail.
The interest is often in the regional pattern: how a town relates to neighbouring places, transport routes, water, and higher ground. 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 1903.
