Irish Ordnance Survey Maps : A User's Guide

Mulligan, Paul2024
Books, Manuscripts
A myriad of descriptive names and abbreviations have appeared on Irish Ordnance Survey maps since the 1830’s when the first six-inch maps were published. OS mapping may also have geological, topographical, archaeological, botanical and cartographic terms, administrative divisions and Irish language terms which require definition or translation. It is such terminology which is the focus of this book. Also included are: a table of scales used on Irish OS maps, a list of imperial measurements and metric equivalents, a table of placename changes, an archaeological time chart for Ireland, a list of online resources and a bibliography.
