centre of the lower map. A circle is drawn, with the "you
are here" at its centre and
indicates a distance equal to a 5 minute walk. The upper map shows a
circle the equivalent to a fifteen minute walk with "you

of the map indicates the direction ahead of where the map is being
viewed from. For those that like to know where "north"

pillar.
