For the #walking trip from #DulvertonToTarrSteps, I planned it using and #OrdnanceSurveyMap or #OSMap. I prefer using these tried-and-trusted methods for #hiking since they are less prone to #TechonolgyFailures and it forces you to consider what you will encounter, rather than always be looking at your #mobile.

In the afternoon of the first full day in #BannauBrycheiniog, we travelled to #Crickhowell or #Crughywel to climb #TableMountain, which is also the location of an #IronAge #fort. So, equipped with my #OrdnanceSurveyMap we made steady progress up the slopes, on #roads and then #footpaths, often across #farmland. The total walk was 12.5 km.

Approaching the summit, you can see that the area is covered with #ferns.

Good piece about the history of mapping the Scottish Highlands, and the social/environmental impacts of doing so. https://www.inkcapjournal.co.uk/how-the-ordnance-survey-shaped-the-scotland-we-see-today/

How the Ordnance Survey shaped the Scotland we see today

By unveiling the secrets of landscape, mapmakers contributed to the deforestation and clearance of the Highlands and Islands.

The tables in the house old, Victorian bar of Bennett's has old Ordnance Survey maps as table tops. By coincidence ours today covers the area of Edinburgh we're actually sitting in. Which is kind of nice.
