1 : 480 This detailed 1897 plan of London is one of a series of twenty-seven sheets in an atlas 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).

1 : 7200 The title of this plan appears at bottom left, with an explanatory note and scale bar at bottom centre. An illustration of the general construction of the railway features at bottom right. The Greenwich line reached Bermondsey in 1836. A year later, it reached London Bridege, which became the first railway terminus in the capital. Wyld, James
Grundstriss der Statt LONDON wie solche vor und nach dem Brand anzuschen sampt dem Newen Model wie selbige wid rum Auffgebauwet werden solle
This is a map of London immediately after the great fire of 1666. The map was first published by the Merian Heirs of Frankfurt in 1677, appearing in the anthology "Theatri Europei". The title appears in a scroll along the top, flanked by royal and city arms. Notes on shading and an inset plan of Robert Hooke’s designs for rebuilding the city appear in another scroll at the foot of the plate. Hooke's plan is given with its own key and reference table.
FAIRBURN'S PLAN of the proposed WET-DOCKS AND CUT from NEW GRAVEL LANE to BLACKWALL
1 : 16896 The plan's title and publisher's imprint appear at bottom left, with a compass star, key and scale bar at bottom centre.The boundary of the area to be developed is highlighted in red. After a Parliamentary Select Committee in 1796 condemned the congestion at the Port of London, a number of large-scale projects for new docking and shipping facilities were submitted to Parliament. Fairburn's plan illustrates the London merchants' scheme. It consists of an entrance dock that could accommodate 33 loaded ships, two main docks that would accommodate a total of 355 ships and a separate dock for lighters. The plan also included the creation of the 2" 3/4 mile long cut from Wapping to Blackwall. An improved version of this scheme would eventually materialise as the London Docks. Fairburn, John

A PLAN of the City and Suburbs of LONDON as fortified by Order of Parliament in the Years 1642 and 1643.
This is a retrospective plan of London showing the defences for the civil war, established after an Act of Parliament in 1642. These built to protect the city from attacks by Charles I and his 15,000 Royalist troops. Here all 23 forts are shown, linked by eighteen miles of ramparts. The Royalists did not attempt to enter London as the King made a tactical withdrawal. Fort 6 was the first to be built, with a commanding prospect of Finsbury Fields. Vertue, G.
