Dalbeattie Street Map

Grid Reference NX 834 617

Produced on OCAD in 1999.

This is a map of contrasts; open park land is surrounded by built up areas which are a mixture of older and more recent housing. In the older part of the town concentration has to be maintained in order that pathways which can provide short cuts are not missed. In the newer housing areas complex pathways criss-cross each other and can easily confuse the unwary. Route choice around the river area, where there are few crossing points, is critical if time penalties are to be avoided. While longer courses will be required to cross busy roads it is possible to keep the shorter courses on minor roads.
