Scale: mostly 1:100,000

Ordnance Survey’s Tour series of indexed regional road maps, with extra clear, uncluttered cartography, national and regional cycle routes, national long-distance hiking trails, extensive tourist information and town navigation maps.

Topography is shown by altitude colouring, with additional relief shading, names of local hill or mountain ranges and heights of important peaks. Woodlands are coloured and national parks or designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty are marked. Road information very clearly distinguishes between different types of roads, from motorways to small local roads, with distances in miles on main routes. Motorway services, tolls, gradients on steep roads and level crossings are marked and towns used in motorway signs as Primary Route Destinations are highlighted. Railway lines are shown with stations. Where appropriate, ferry routes are marked.

Very extensive range of symbols highlight various places of interest, including campsites, historic houses, sport and recreational facilities, country pubs, etc. Many maps also show scenic routes and include lists of market days, main attractions, etc. Insets show town navigation maps, highlighting access and through routes as well as places of interest. The index and any additional features are all conveniently placed on the same side as the main map.
