Bassenthwaite - Using OS maps

Class: Mrs Pickering - Bassenthwaite Year: 2022 - 2023

We have been learning about the geography of Whitehaven and in today's lesson we looked at OS maps of West Cumbria.

We saw how an OS map combines physical and human geography. We used the key to help us locate different facilities and considered how steep different land was using contour lines.
