Signet.s.135 - Ordnance Survey, One-inch to the mile, Scotland, 2nd edition, 1898-1904 (with parishes in colour and 6"/25" sheet lines)
This series was published as an index to larger scale mapping at the six-inch and 25-inch to the mile scales, and intended to reduce the great confusion that existed between the two series. With underlying topography dating from 1894-1895, the indexes also show parishes in five colours. The extent and boundaries of civil parishes, incorporating the recent and extensive changes of the Local Government Act (Scotland) 1894 are a striking feature of the maps, and of great value for the genealogist and local historian. The series was never completed, the high production costs and low sales leading to its abandonment in 1904.
