Our final talk slot of the day was handed to the entertaining Ken Field who bought us maps, music and a tour around his beloved hometown of Nottingham.
At least one thing we all agreed to in the room was that not all maps need a north arrow

It's been 35yrs since I worked at BGS when I vowed never to be a cartographer. Technically, I've never had a job with 'cartographer' in the title so I kinda held myself to that promise. Good to be back today for #carto2025 though.

Some in depth research shown across all the design elements that come together to have made these maps.
