Maps & Grid References
A grid reference can be linked straight to the OS Get-a-Map service using the following code:{{osgetamap|NN123123}}
Note the grid reference needs to be in standard "two letter, six digit" British National Grid format. This link is automatically created in the start and end grid reference links of the route summary tables template.
A Google map box can be included in your page using the "make a map" link at the top of the edit box. This is useful for transport and local information, but not so brilliant for route information.
