Clapham Park & Balham 1894 – 125.2

Clapham Park and Balham in 1894 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. Three versions have been published for this area, stretching from Mayford Road and Wontner Road eastward to Montrell Road and Killieser Avenue, and from Temperley Road and Yukon Road southward to Ritherdon Road and Mount Ephraim Road. These streets, however, are generally not yet built on the 1872 map, where development is at an earlier stage; this map is very attractive, showing villas on the main roads with their leafy gardens. Principal roads on all the maps are a long stretch of Balham Road on the west side of the map, and Atkins Road, Thornton Road and New Park Road in the Clapham Park area to the east. Other features include Balham and Streatham Hill stations, Bedfordhill House, Tooting Bec Common. Each map has street directory extracts and the 1872 map has the Balham Court Guide. About the Alan Godfrey Editions of the 25″ OS SeriesSelected 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. The plans have been taken from the Ordnance Survey mapping and reprinted at about 15 inches to one mile (1:4,340). On the reverse most maps have historical notes and many also include extracts from contemporary directories. Most maps cover about one mile (1.6kms) north/south, one and a half miles (2.4kms) across; adjoining sheets can be combined to provide wider coverage.FOR MORE INFORMATION AND A COMPLETE LIST OF ALL AVAILABLE TITLES PLEASE CLICK ON THE SERIES LINK.
