Bishop's Wood 1981. This Staffordshire pine wood contains the remains of an old glass factory. It was used a lot between 1976 and 1986 but has long been missing from the fixture lists. #OldOrienteeringMap #Orienteering #Map #WrekinOrienteers This was my last ever run in the #JK.
Wrekin 1979. Eastern half of the map which included some very brambly industrial ground on limestone as well as the Uriconian ridge itself. First use was for the Midland Championships. I was on control checking duty and had to climb the thing four times on my patrol. This map was for a use up the map stock badge event. Note the 10m contour interval. #OldOrienteeringMaps #Orienteering #Maps #WrekinOrienteers #Shropshire
