*   the term “end” has been used to indicate that the guide concerned remained in production after 1950.  In many cases, it continued to be published in the revised red-and-yellow dust jacket cover format until the late 1970s.

the Ward Lock spelling of some locations may vary from contemporary common usage. We have used the spelling from the red guide title. For example:

Bettws-y-Coed vs Betwys-y-Coed or Bettwys-y-Coed

Carnarvon vs Caernarvon

Lisadoonvana Spas vs Lisdoonvana Spas or Lisdoonvarna Spas
