The collection tends to the north with Scotland well represented. We have a
much larger selection at 1:10,000 so I presume we have updated over the
years and disposed of the 10,560s.
We are BBC R&D at KT20 6NP ot TQ 244 559. .
If you know of Geography departments who do take maps I would be grateful
for your help. I have, for example, just come across some geological
survey of Italy overprinted by the War office in 1943.
