About this map
This artwork is cropped from Sheet 7 · York & Scarborough, 1903, focusing the original cartography around Sandsend rather than reproducing the complete historic sheet.
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. 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 1903.
