The 250-foot aperture Mark I radio telescope at Jodrell Bank has been used to make a 408 MHz continuum survey of the Galactic anticentre region. The telescope resolution was 45 arc minutes. The region surveyed was |04 \,h. < \,R.A. < 12 \,h., -20∘ < \,Dec. < + 60∘| and |00 \,h. < \,R.A. < 04 \,h., +20∘ < \,Dec. < + 60∘.| The contours are presented at intervals of 2 °K in beam temperature. The maps are given both in equatorial coordinates and, for the strip |-10∘ < b¹¹ < + 10∘,| in new Galactic coordinates.
