Map of Nottinghamshire (original) (raw)
This is our official map so that players have the option of using realistic travel and to help them better visualize the setting. We have also created a table of common travel routes to make judging travel times even easier.

All distances on this chart are proximate and are based off of our map, not 'real life'. "From" and "To" can obviously be switched, the distance is the same regardless of which direction you are going. "By Road" means that it was measured using the most direct route by road, though it often includes at least a small amount of off-road travel. "Overland" is measured in a straight line between the destinations and does not account for terrain or other obstacles. If you need to know another distance or the exact distance between points according to our map, please feel free to ask 
swff_mods. You can also suggest more distances to add to this table.
