NX square spans the North West English Region & South Scotland region of Scotland.
The NX national grid square measures 100 km by 100 km and has an area of 10,000 kilometres squared.
The technical term for a 100 km map square is a Myriad.
When this 100km square is divided into a grid 10 by 10 it gives the next size of grid square. This unit is called a Hectad and measures 10km square. 100 hectads fit in a 100km square.
Out of the hectads generated from square NX, 68 are land and 32 are sea. Sea squares are disregarded on this site as they contain no land features.
