Ordnance Survey maps are covered by numbered grids.
These help us pinpoint places more easily.

Read this explanation... If a place is given a number, 4323, it is called a grid reference.
The first two digits (43) are called the Eastings, they found along the bottom and top of a map.
The second two digits (23) are called the Northings, they are found along the side of the map.

Read this explanation... To find the grid reference 4421-
First place a finger on line 44 of the Eastings.
Place a second finger on line 21 of the Northings.
Draw your fingers together, the square you are looking for is North-East of where the two lines cross.
