Compare the relief of the two map extracts – key points. Low land, high land – how is this shown. Contour lines. Hill tops, plateaus, cliffs? Spot heights? Triangulation pillars?

Task: Work through the map skills questions on worksheet 7.4 Recognition of coastal landforms from contour maps and then 14E describing Coastlines. Answer in detailed sentences where appropriate using a range of geographical terms.
