Concession road grid
Long straight roads laid out by the colonial survey divide the countryside into regular blocks, giving the map a strong geometric frame that carries on well past the town itself.

Tabula
Seen from above, Whitchurch-Stouffville is mostly rural. The Ontario survey laid the land out in long concession roads and sideroads that meet at right angles, and that grid still runs across the whole municipality. Farm fields, woodlots and small hamlets sit in the squares, and the settled part of Stouffville fills only a small corner of the frame.
The Stouffville community grew along a single main street, and the newer subdivisions around it show up as curving crescents inside the older rectilinear grid. A rail line runs into town from the south and links it to the commuter network of the Greater Toronto Area. Further north, the rolling ground of the Oak Ridges Moraine breaks the regular pattern with small lakes and winding lanes.
A Whitchurch-Stouffville map poster puts both of these patterns side by side: the measured order of the survey grid and the looser shapes of the moraine. In black and white the concession roads read like ruled lines on a page, and the lakes and ponds show as small pale shapes among them. The composition is quiet and open, with plenty of space around a few dense clusters of streets.
Long straight roads laid out by the colonial survey divide the countryside into regular blocks, giving the map a strong geometric frame that carries on well past the town itself.
The older centre of Stouffville is built along one main street, a short line of dense blocks that stands out clearly against the open farmland around it.
In the north of the municipality, the moraine's hills and kettle lakes interrupt the grid with irregular shorelines and roads that bend to follow the ground.

Cur Whitchurch-Stouffville
This map suits people who know the place through its back roads: the drive between hamlets, a farm on a particular sideroad, a house in one of the newer crescents. The grid makes it easy to point to exactly where home was, even in a wide view.
You can add your own title, a subtitle and a coordinates line, for example a family name and the year you moved in. Choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand, then download the HD files for $9 or order a printed poster, with an optional wooden frame.
