Victorian street grid
The original town plan is a regular grid of straight streets. It is still clearly visible at the centre and easy to read even at small print sizes.

The map
Ladybrand is a Free State town close to the border with Lesotho, a short drive from the crossing to Maseru. It was laid out in the nineteenth century on a regular grid, with the church and town centre near the middle. The Platberg, a flat-topped ridge, rises directly behind the town and frames it.
Many older buildings are made of local yellow sandstone, which gives the streets a consistent, warm character. The town is named after Lady Catharina Brand, mother of Johannes Brand, a president of the Orange Free State. Nearby sandstone outcrops shelter rock art and cave sites that draw visitors from both sides of the border.
A Ladybrand map poster shows a compact, legible town: straight streets crossing at right angles, a denser centre, and lower-density suburbs spreading along the roads out of town. On one side the slope of the Platberg interrupts the pattern. That gives the composition a natural edge that looks deliberate on the wall.
The original town plan is a regular grid of straight streets. It is still clearly visible at the centre and easy to read even at small print sizes.
The flat-topped mountain beside the town stops the streets abruptly and forms a strong natural boundary on the map.
The route to the Lesotho border leaves town to the south. It connects Ladybrand with Maseru and gives the map a clear directional line.

Why Ladybrand
Ladybrand appeals to people who have lived in the eastern Free State, crossed often into Lesotho, or stayed in one of its sandstone guesthouses. A clean map of the grid and the ridge makes a fitting keepsake for a farmhouse, a city flat or a holiday cottage.
Personalise the poster with a title, a subtitle such as a family name or wedding date, and the coordinates line. Choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand, then download the files or order a matte print, framed or unframed.
