This page was saved for posterity, due to the fact I felt it had a lot of value with the details of Lake District walks. I have tried to save as much as I could and will continue to patch it up over coming weeks with the help of the internet archive. Thanks for stopping by.

Ordinate Survey Maps for Sale
When this website first started, ordinate survey maps were sold as a way to make a small income to help with the upkeep of the website and hosting costs etc. We no longer sell the maps, but link to Amazon who do. For full disclosure – we link to them via affiliate links, so will get a few pennies from each sale through our links. If you don’t wish to help us in this way, then by all means don’t click the links. But any help is appreciated.
