Use DEFRA’s “Magic” map, which allows you to stick coordinates in in a wide variety of formats, and more importantly provides tools for seeing where a place is in a wide variety of different referencing systems.
You can find it here: http://magic.defra.gov.uk/MagicMap.aspx Specifically, entering “NU000525” (OS six figure refs, so lose a little precision) gives the museums at Fisher’s Fort in Berwick (http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1792339349) and for the adjacent NT999525 refers to http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/71319888 Regards, Stuart for traveline south east & anglia On 28 May 2017, at 11:28, Andrew Hain <andrewhain...@hotmail.co.uk<mailto:andrewhain...@hotmail.co.uk>> wrote: What is the easiest way to locate national grid references on the map?

I'll leave it to you to figure out what these coordinates mean and which museums may need to be checked ;) Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail frede...@remote.org<mailto:frede...@remote.org> ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33" _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org<mailto:Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org<mailto:Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
