West India Docks in 1914 in a fascinating series of reproductions of old Ordnance Survey plans in the Alan Godfrey Editions, ideal for anyone interested in the history of their neighbourhood or family. Tthree versions of this map have been published to show how the area developed across the years. The sheetlines are a little unkind to the Isle of Dogs, which is split between several sheets (78, 79, 91, 92) but this is perhaps the main map for that area. The three maps all cover the same area, stretching from Poplar Docks southward to the north part of Cubitt Town & including major parts of the two West India Docks, the South Dock & Millwall Inner Dock. Part of Millwall Outer Dock is at the extreme foot of the map. Blackwall with its shipbuilding yards is at the top of the map. Across the Thames are Greenwich Marshes, growing more developed over the years & today famous for the Dome. On the 1914 map the area is now densely built up; on Greenwich Marshes the South Metropolitan Gas Co sprawls across vast area, with many railway sidings, Blackwall Tunnel now shown. The fine amount of detail
- railway tracks, wharves, mooring posts, cranes etc
- helps provide a fascinating contrast with the Docklands of today. About the Alan Godfrey Editions of the 25” OS Series: Selected towns in Great Britain & Ireland are covered by maps showing the extent of urban development in the last decades of the 19th & early 20th century. The plans have been taken from the Ordnance Survey mapping & reprinted at about 15 inches to one mile (1:4, 340). On the reverse most maps have historical notes & many also include extracts from contemporary directories. Most maps cover about one mile (1.6kms) north/south, one & a half miles (2.4kms) across; adjoining sheets can be combined to provide wider coverage.FOR MORE INFORMATION & A COMPLETE LIST OF ALL AVAILABLE TITLES PLEASE CLICK ON THE SERIES LINK.
