CRUCHLEY'S New Plan of LONDON and its ENVIRONS

This map is the 11th edition of Cruchley's 'New Plan'. It was altered on each publication, recording the many developments than spanned this period, particularly railway expansion. In this edition the Waterloo and Bricklayers Arms stations are shown, as are Battersea and Victoria Parks. Prior to the establishment of his own business, Cruchley worked for the Arrowsmiths map-publishing firm. Consequently the words “from Arrowsmiths" appear in his imprint on many of his early maps.

LONDON AND ITS ENVIRONS LEVELS TAKEN BY ORDER OF THE COMMISSIONERS OF SEWERS

The cholera outbreaks of the 1830s and 1840s forced the government to make drastic improvements to the methods of drainage and sewage disposal in London. A Metropolitan Commission of Sewers was charged with the central task of unifying the existing piecemeal drainage system and forming a plan for a completely new one. A new map showing the levels of the land to be drained was needed for this. In March 1848, officers of the Royal Engineers began to prepare stations for triangulation. Observation posts were set up on one of the towers of Westminster Abbey and over the cross of St Paul's. This map is the result of the survey, showing the relative altitude of the land, a necessary preamble to planning drainage systems, as sewage can only be washed away downhill. Wyld, James

Woolwich

1 : 21120 This drawing covers the south bank of the River Thames from Deptford to Erith. Pencil and red ink rays extending from fixed points are clearly visible on the manuscript, and were used to plot the survey of the area. The numbers 1 to 7 in red ink across the map indicate the position from which field sketches were taken. Buildings are infilled and blocked in red at settlements like Woolwich and Greenwich. Clearly indicated is the Woolwich Warren, site of naval shipbuilding since the early-16th century. Before the Royal Arsenal was officially established there in 1805, the Warren had been home of military armsworks for more than a century.
