About this map

This artwork is cropped from Sheet 21 · Pembroke, 1903, focusing the original cartography around Tenby 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. Its 1:126,720 scale, two miles to the inch, sits between detailed local survey mapping and much smaller national maps.

The series is especially recognisable for its layer colouring, with greens across lower ground and browns and paler tones used as elevation rises. 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. This particular source was published in 1903.
