Maps made with MERLIN and the VLA of compact steep-spectrum radio sources at wavelengths of 18, 6 and 2 cm with subarcsecond resolution are presented. The sources were selected from the 3C and Peacock and Wall surveys. A study of the angular structures found shows that the high-frequency survey of Peacock and Wall preferentially selects sources with angular sizes of less than 0.1 arcsec, even though their high-frequency spectra are still steep. The resolved quasars in this study have predominantly complex or distorted structures, whereas the galaxies tend to have simpler 'double' type structure.
