Central Hackney area of London in 1870-1893 in a series of exceptionally detailed reproductions of old Ordnance Survey street plans for areas of larger cities which have undergone substantial redevelopment in the late 19th or the early 20th century, published in the Alan Godfrey Editions.

Located in east London just north of The City, Hackney has a long history stretching back to Tudor times. During the 1980s when Berris Conolly took these photographs it was an area in decline. This was a decade of turmoil in both national & local politics with issues of social justice never far from the headlines. Today the concerns increasingly revolve around the gentrification of areas of the borough & the disparities of wealth that this exemplifies. Berris Conolly photographed the places that he knew & that formed his everyday environment. Using the A-Z, he walked, cycled or drove down every street, marking off the grid squares as he went. There was no conscious or formal theme to the project, other than to record mainly the streets & buildings rather than people, though inevitably people did start to appear in some of the images, either as figures in the landscape, or frequently at their own request. Often he would set up the tripod to take an empty scene & passers-by would ask to be photographed, possibly drawn by the sight of a large camera & tripod. ” Are you from the local paper?” was a common question. The resultant archive comprises over 1500 images. ...
