Vintage style map of the North Wessex Downs: County Sections - Mini map version
stunning contemporary design inspired from classic and vintage maps. The different colours are the portions of the dofferent counties that make up the North Wessex Downs national landscape.
Original map designed in 2022 - Mini map version created in 2024.
The mini map series takes my large scale county, national park and landscape maps, reducing them down to smaller sizes for those with less wallspace.
A certain amount of detail is sacrificed including the civil parish boundaries and labels, national walking routes, streams and the majority of hill and wood labels. Major geographic landmarks are maintained.
The Sites of Significant Historical and Cultural Interest are also lost.
A light off white background is applied
