The 6th Cambridge survey of radio sources covers most of the sky north of δ+30° with an angular resolution of 4. 2×4. 2 cosec δ arcmin2 and reaches a limiting flux density of 190 mJy at 151 MHz in the present zone. In this paper the methods used to produce the survey maps from a non-tracking telescope operating at declinations other than the north celestial pole are described: this forms the basis for all future papers in the series. Maps of a high galactic latitude region |30^ 51^, 08^ h30^ m17^ h30^ m| are presented, together with a list of 8278 sources in the 2030 deg2 covered. A source count over the range 200 mJy<S (151) <100 Jy is derived.
