On the subject of mapping, did you know that you can use some Ordnance Survey maps for your own purposes, including modifying them and openly publishing them anywhere?
The only condition is that you must acknowledge the OS copyright. For full information, see here: https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/busines...ndata.html
I used to use them by copying them off the screen and pasting them together to create the area I wanted but that has now changed and you have to download the entire 100km square sheet. This is divided into 100 10km squares which are subdivided into four 5km squares, so thats 400 files per sheet!

If anyone wants to join in, just turn up - you don't need to be a CAMRA member!
