Brentford 1935 – 83.4

Brentford in 1935 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. Two versions of this map cover the centre of Brentford and the area to the west, stretching as far as Syonhill Farm and Wyke House; and from Brentford Dock northward to Boston House and White Stile Road. The 1894 version is a map of contrasts, with all the bustle of Brentford in the east half of the map, and many orchards in the western half. Features include Brentford Dock, numerous wharves, the River Brent and Grand Junction Canal, High Street and New Brentford, The Butts, the LSWR railway and Brentford station, the GWR Brentford Branch with its station, Brentford End, Town Hall, Windmill Road, malthouses, Thames Soap Works, St Lawrence`s church and cemetery, the northern tip of Syon Park. This 1935 version shows the area largely built up, with many major factories along the Great West Road. About the Alan Godfrey Editions of the 25″ OS Series:Selected towns in Great Britain and Ireland are covered by maps showing the extent of urban development in the last decades of the 19th and early 20th century.
