PLAN OF THE HAMLET OF KENTISH TOWN and its VICINITY 45 A

1 : 4572 The title and compass of this plan feature at top right, with scale bar and key at bottom right. The boundaries of the Gloucester Palace District and Holmes Estate are outlined in red and green respectively. The development of Kentish Town as a predominantly middle-class residential suburb began in the 1840s and the area lost the rural charm that had, along with its many inns and public houses, made it a popular destination for day trips from London.

Insurance Plan of London North District Vol. D: Key Plan

1 : 3600 This "key plan" indicates coverage of the Goad 1901 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 Survey of the Roads and Foot-paths in the Parish of ISLINGTON. From a plan in the Vestry Room, Drawn in the Year 1735

1 : 14400 This is a plan of footpaths and roads in the parish of Islington. It extends from Battle Bridge to Highgate and from ''Cruch End'' to Kings Land and the boundary to Shoreditch. An interesting feature on this map is Jack Straws House near Highbury. Jack Straw was a leader of one band of rebels who attacked the Treasurer's House at Highbury on June 14, 1381. The Peasants' Revolt over increasing taxation was largely due to the monarchy's prosectution of war against France. Toll gates are also marked in various places. Hawsworth, J.

Detail from OSD 152 (Hampstead)

1 : 31680 The individual settlements that make up this area of London are shown by red blocks, with boundary lines indicating the fields separating them. Shading and soft interlining indicate relief, neatly illustrated at Primrose Hill, the summit of which is left bare. The barracks at the edge of Hyde Park are illustrated at the very bottom of the map. The dark blue-black line running from West Drayton to Brentford and Paddington is the Grand Junction Canal. This was London's principal link to the rest of Britain's canals, allowing the passage of goods to and from the industrial towns of the North and Midlands. Hyett includes a ground plan of Kenwood House in Hampstead, showing a level of detail much greater than might be expected from a map with a scale of two inches-to-the-mile. Hyett, William
