London South East Vol. J: Key Plan

1 : 4800 This "key plan" indicates coverage of the Goad 1897 series of fire insurance maps of London that were originally produced to aid insurance companies in assessing fire risks. The building footprints, their use (commercial, residential, educational, etc.), the number of floors and the height of the building, as well as construction materials (and thus risk of burning) and special fire hazards (chemicals, kilns, ovens) were documented in order to estimate premiums. Names of individual businesses, property lines, and addresses were also often recorded. Together these maps provide a rich historical shapshot of the commercial activity and urban landscape of towns and cities at the time. The British Library holds a comprehensive collection of fire insurance plans produced by the London-based firm Charles E. Goad Ltd. dating back to 1885. These plans were made for most important towns and cities of the British Isles at the scales of 1:480 (1 inch to 40 feet), as well as many foreign towns at 1:600 (1 inch to 50 feet).

A MAP OF THE PARISH OF ST. MARY MAGDALEN BERMONDSEY

1 : 5400 This parish plan was published in Strype's 1755 annotated edition of Stow's 'Survey of England'. The title appears along the top, with a key to streets, lanes, courts and alleys in tables at top left and lower right, compass rose in the centre, and scale bar at bottom right. Damaged by repeated flooding, the old medieval parish church of St. Mary was demolished at the beginning of the 18th Century. In 1715, a new parish church was erected on the site with funds raised by the parishioners themselves after the Commissioners of the Fifty New Churches Act turned down their request for money.
