Trinity House laid out the squares in 1824–32 and 1853–56 and still owns them, and today their terraces are listed and the Merrick Square gardens are railed. Behind the frontages then worked the Tower Pill \u0026amp; Tablet Co., manufacturing chemists, a tin-box and canister factory, and the sorting office's loading banks and garages. The Keymarkets offices, Shere House, Redman House and Silvester Buildings were there too, and the Keymarkets chain was absorbed into Gateway in 1983. On this sheet, the consolidated South Eastern District Post Office site, tenements and playground space replace smaller commercial plots, which marks a substantial change in the Borough High Street district. Goad's plans were made to assess property and fire risk, and they took pasted overlays recording new uses, layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The latest dated correction is a March 1971 vacancy annotation in block 2414. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in December 1946, with a 1950 copyright date, and a key plan for this area acquired with the group records corrections to March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Trinity Street, Globe Street, Cole Street, Swan Street, Tabard Street, Long Lane, Lant Street and Great Suffolk Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371790389595,"sku":"P-9-001242","price":180.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001242a_fdf4a839-4f1e-4d4d-9d42-e33713ae81eb.jpg?v=1792149331"},{"product_id":"goad-london-252-se1-borough-high-st-trinity-church-sq-merrick-square-1943-map-p-9-001243","title":"Goad London 252—SE1—Borough High St—Trinity Church Sq—Merrick Square 1943 map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 252 [Borough High Street, Great Dover Street, Trinity Church Square and Merrick Square — uncoloured outline]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eGoad's uncoloured outline fire insurance plan of London, sheet 252, covers Borough between Borough High Street and Great Dover Street (SE1). It shows the Trinity Church Square terraces and the Merrick Square gardens, both of which are still owned by Trinity House. Trinity Church Square's King Alfred statue was found in 2021 to be a Roman figure of about AD 80–130 below the waist. In Lant Street the boy Dickens lodged in 1824 while his father was in the Marshalsea. Among the back ways the sheet shows are Avon Place, Hulme Place and Swan Yard. Reissued in December 1943, this outline records streets, footprints and plot divisions with less occupancy and risk detail than the coloured plans. It preserves smaller commercial plots that later coloured revisions show replaced by the consolidated South Eastern District Post Office site, tenements and playground space. Goad's working plans existed to price property and fire risk, and pasted overlays kept them current with changes of use, altered layouts, demolition and new building.
