The map

About this Kokstad map poster

Kokstad lies in the south of KwaZulu-Natal, close to the Eastern Cape border, in the region historically known as East Griqualand. It was founded in the 1860s by the Griqua leader Adam Kok III, who led his people across the Drakensberg to settle here. The town is named after him.

The street map shows a planned town: a clear grid of blocks around the centre, with newer residential areas spreading beyond it. Mount Currie rises to the north, and open grassland and farmland stretch in all directions, giving the town a strong sense of space.

A Kokstad map poster shows that regular core set against a wide rural landscape. The main roads run out toward Durban and Mthatha, and the transition from grid to open country is clean and easy to read, which suits a minimalist monochrome print.

01

Town grid

The centre is laid out in a regular pattern of straight streets and rectangular blocks, an orderly core that anchors the map.

02

Mount Currie

The mountain to the north of town frames the setting and gives the wider landscape a sense of height and direction.

03

Open grassland

Farmland and upland grass surround the town and leave broad empty areas that make the street pattern stand out clearly.

Why Kokstad

A map that means something

Kokstad has a distinct history and a very clear shape, and people who grew up there, went to school there or farmed nearby often keep a strong connection to it. A map is a quiet way to show that.

The title, subtitle and coordinates line can be personalised with a family name, a school year or a special date. Choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand.
