Uganda. 1/250,000. _, North A. 36 , . Sheet = (reference number on the new International Map system). Printed in colour and published by the Geographical Section, GeneralStaff. 1911. Relief shown by approximate contours at 200 feet vertical interval, withinterpolated contours at 100 feet interval long-dotted. Contours drawnexceedingly fine and printed in pale brown. Spot heights very numerous,brown. Main roads coloured brown. Water blue. Forest by green tree yellow. Names very numerous, in black. Full characteristic sheet. Magnetic meridian. An unsatisfactory map, the relief of the ground quite illegible, owingto the confusion of the very faint contours with other detail. It should becompared with the map of Basutoland produced in the same year in thesame office. Plate VI.
