War Office, Scotland One-Inch Popular GSGS 4639, 1947-50

This series is essentially the Ordnance Survey's One-Inch to the Mile Popular edition with National Grid 1947-50 maps, but carrying the War Office Cassini Grid. The maps all carry the War Office series number, Geographical Section, General Staff 4639. The base information on the maps derives from the Ordnance Survey's One-Inch to the Mile Popular edition mapping of 1921-30, re-issued with selective updates in the 1930s and 1940s. These updates include Air Raid Precaution revisions from 1938-9, included on GSGS 3906 and some selective updating of roads and railways from large-scale revision in the 1930s. We are missing some sheets in this series.

For full details of this series, consult Roger Hellyer and Richard Oliver's Military maps: the one inch series of Great Britain and Ireland (London: Charles Close Society, 2004).
