I was admiring the map yesterday (and it's a sweet piece of art) and I could not find two things. Maybe I missed them. One is a scale line that tells me distance and the other is the device that tells the north south east west orientation of the map. Now I assume the top of the map is north but I want to be sure. And some idea of distance would be helpful. Am I missing that or is that something that should be there?
I'll see what I can do to answer your questions.
Assuming you have the correct image, a scale is provided in the top right of the map under the 'Uncleansed Area' key. The scale is marked in yards and miles, and should provide you exactly what you need.
As for north, I drew it with the assumption that the map was aligned to the cardinal directions, with north at the top, but will leave that to Henry to confirm.
Also, super pleased to read you like the map. It was a pretty massive endeavour.
