Around Edinburgh and the Scottish Borders is one of 20 titles in
the new Philip's Cycle Tours series. The series is directly derived
from the highly successful Ordnance Survey Cycle Tours series, but
has been updated and improved, with a new focus on the needs of
cyclists and the cycling market in the 21st century.Each book in
the series contains 20 routes, both on-road and off-road, taking
you along low-traffic or traffic free roads, tracks and paths. The
route takes you through some of the most beautiful countryside and
prettiest villages in Britain, and past some of the finest and most
interesting houses, churches, castles, gardens and monuments in the
land.Around Edinburgh and the Scottish Borders provides excellent
cycling in the superb scenery of the eastern half of southern
Scotland around Edinburgh, with rides in the area from Dundee to
the north through to the border country in the south. The region
contains a wide variety of rides through hills and forest and past
rivers, lochs and coastline.A unique feature of Philip's Cycle
Tours is the superb Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 mapping showing the
routes of the rides. This mapping not only gives the detail and
clarity you need to follow the route with ease and safety, but
allows you to plan short-cuts and detours, to look out for new
places of interest, and to become truly involved in the lansdcape
you are cycling through. The mapping now shows National Cycle
Network routes and National Long-Distance Footpaths.Clear
directions are given alongside the mapping, and cross-profile
diagrams make planning the pacing of each ride an easy task, even
for the beginner. Extra information includes an introduction to the
area of the route, nearest railway stations, places of interest
with descriptions, guides to refreshment stops, and clear
indications of distance, grade and terrain.The books are
beautifully and practically designed, with colour photographs
throughout the ultra-clear layout.Main map scale: 1:50,000

with individual height points and all of the official 'Trig'
points. Tour & Trail attention to detail includes our useful
symbol range including viewpoints, picnic areas, petrol stations,
bar/restaurants and parking areas where you can pull off the road
safely. You will easily identify springs, caves, sports grounds,
cemeteries, churches, chapels, lighthouses, towers and forts,

History of and gazetteer to all surviving Welsh castles - the
majority 13c - arranged by county, with full OS details. The
medieval castles of Wales are an imposing group of monuments.
Although there are examples from the Norman period, the vast
majority of the surviving castles date from the thirteenth century,
a dramatic and turbulent period when Wales was nearly united under
native rule before succumbing to Edward I's conquest: Caernarfon,
Conway, Harlech and Beaumaris are justly famous, but equally fine
examples can be found elsewhere, including Pembroke, Kidwelly
andChepstow in south Wales; native Welsh castles feature
prominently. This book provides a brief account and complete
gazetteer of every surviving castle in Wales, from the impressive
earthworks raised by the Norman invaders to the castle-palaces of
the later middle ages, and including the remarkable town
fortifications of Wales; it is arranged by county for convenience
of reference, and offers full Ordnance Survey details. Lavishly
illustrated. ADRIAN PETTIFER gained his degree in ancient and
medieval history from Birmingham University.
