Custom Made Ordnance Survey Map

A Custom Made OS Map makes a great personal gift for friend or family.

To give you a bit more info, these are OS maps you can personalise with a front cover image you choose yourself.  All you need to do is enter the postcode for a home address, or name of a village or town, and this becomes the centre point of a unique foldable OS map.

It is a popular and quirky gift idea. Gifts have been sent that focus on a loved one’s favourite holiday beauty spots, dog walks, places where marriage proposals were made etc. In addition, people can buy canvas and framed versions so people could hang their favourite map locations on their walls at home.

Small custom made maps are £7.99 from the OS shop, while large ones are £19.99.

The Munros

This book provides a compendium of maps including coverage of every Munro (hill over 3000′). It will assist the planning of countless days of hillwalking. By its nature it is a picture of the upland topography of Scotland. The Munros in ONE book For the map lover, here is a feast of topographic delight. For the outdoor enthusiast, material for future invigorating exploits. As a planning guide for outdoor activity, the book accompanies the Munro & Corbett Chart, which shows the broad location of each Munro. The detailed maps enable the walker to plan routes and trips. The book does not attempt to be a guidebook. Most walkers will have their own favourite source of wisdom about the way to tackle any particular mountain. The mapping of Scotland’s mountains has been closely intertwined with the 40-year life of HARVEY Maps, so we have included a little about the history, the people and the philosophy of the Company. This book will fill the hours when you can’t be on the hills – the ultimate Before and After book.
