The present invention relates to a perpendicular recording magnetic head. A main magnetic pole film of a perpendicular recording element is a plated film formed on an electrode film and having a small width portion and a large width portion. The small width portion is a portion for emitting a perpendicular magnetic field from a front end thereof, while the large width portion is portion being continuous with a rear end of the small width portion and having an increased width. The electrode film is different in film thickness between beneath a portion of the plated film forming at least the front end of the small width portion and beneath a portion of the plated film forming the large width portion.
