The Gate has been the headquarters of the Order of St John since the 1870s. It holds the Order's museum, which was renovated in 2010, while the St John Ambulance Brigade headquarters has been rebuilt on St John's Lane. St John's Church was burnt out in May 1941 and rebuilt by 1958 over its twelfth-century crypt, and it keeps the Cloister Gardens from that restoration. Nearby, the sheet records Unilever's maintenance works, GPO engineers' offices, lift engineers, printers and non-ferrous-metal storage, revealing what was then a practical industrial setting. Since the 1980s that setting has turned to offices, design studios and showrooms, a change of work in a district long known for skilled trades. The plans were compiled to assess fire risk, and they carry pasted slips recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The last dated correction on this sheet is March 1970. The sheet was reissued in July 1936, with a 1950 copyright date, and it belongs to a group whose key plans were still being corrected in October 1970 and March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Clerkenwell Green, Aylesbury Street, Clerkenwell Road, St John Street, Britton Street, Albemarle Way, Briset Street and Great Sutton Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371734356315,"sku":"P-9-001140","price":180.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001140a_5e9ea377-b999-4808-b673-8604661875df.jpg?v=1792149070"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/collections\/briset-street.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
