Does A Blank Square Exist On An Ordnance Survey Map?
They are talking about the Ordnance Survey on BBC Breakfast this morning?
At my primary school, de Bohun in Southgate, there was a guy called Peter Laws. His parents were keen walkers and the family always scanned a new map to see if any of the one-kilometre squares on the map were blank. They had never found one!
But that was in 1958 or so!
So does a mythical blank square actually exist?
Every time I’ve bought a map in the last fifty years or so, I’ve always searched and never found one.

There are large areas of Scotland with not much in them, so I guess that would be the most likely place – a flattish part of course, because of the contour lines which I seem to recall being on OS

I remember he said he’d checked all of them in the North of Scotland and there is always a contour line.
