Historic mapping of Withernsea and its surrounding landscape, reproduced as a mug from Bartholomew's distinctive Half-Inch mapping.

What this map covers

The wider map around Withernsea includes Winestead, Roos and Hollym, with Highfield Fishing Lake also within the view.

About this map

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

Its 1:126,720 scale, two miles to the inch, sits between detailed local survey mapping and much smaller national maps. 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.

Complete coverage of Great Britain was achieved by 1903, and the series became closely associated with touring and cycling in the early twentieth century. The interest is often in the regional pattern: how a town relates to neighbouring places, transport routes, water, and higher ground. This particular source was published in 1902.
