Rises on old OS (Ordnance Survey) maps refer to elevated landforms, such as hills or ridges, that are depicted using contour lines. These lines represent changes in elevation, with closer lines indicating steeper terrain. Rises can also be marked with symbols or shading to indicate their prominence. Such maps are valuable for understanding topography and landscape features in historical contexts.
On an Ordnance Survey map, a small black triangle represents a zoo. This symbol is used to denote the location of a zoo within the map area, making it easily identifiable for users. The black triangle is a standardized symbol used by Ordnance Survey to represent zoos across their maps for consistency and clarity.
The name dates back to World War II. Much of the mapping carried out during the war was done by the Department of Ordnance (the guys who take care of munitions, artillery, tanks etc.). Their maps then, were known as Ordnance Survey maps. Today, Ordnance Survey maps are carried out by civilian teams and have nothing to do with ordnance but the name has stuck.

Google Maps, Yahoo! Maps and British Ordinance Survey maps use a mid-blue colour for all water features (rivers, streams, lakes and the sea).
I wonder, which map the question originator is looking at? On Ordnance Survey maps symbol guides, there is no RED STAR. There is however a blue star meaning: Other Tourist Feature.

On an Ordnance Survey map, a golf course is typically denoted by a green circle with a white outline, often accompanied by a small flag symbol. This icon indicates the presence of a golf course in the area. In some maps, additional information such as the name of the golf course may also be provided nearby.
