The sheet shows the St Bartholomew's Hospital in-patients department, nurses' home and swimming pool, which then made the district strongly institutional. The hospital saw off closure in the 1990s and was rebuilt by 2016. In Arthur Conan Doyle’s A Study in Scarlet (1887), Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson first meet in a laboratory at St Bartholomew’s Hospital. St Bartholomew the Great staged the final wedding in Four Weddings and a Funeral, while 41–42 Cloth Fair, which date from about 1614, are the City's only houses to survive the Great Fire. The headquarters of the insurers' London Salvage Corps, built on Aldersgate Street in 1960, was demolished after the corps disbanded in 1984. Former hospital buildings around Little Britain and Bartholomew Close are now Barts Square, completed in 2020, with homes, offices, shops and restaurants. Goad's plans were compiled to rate property and fire risk, and they were kept current with pasted slips recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in April 1950, with a 1950 copyright date, and it carries a latest dated correction of September 1969. Key plans acquired with the group were still being corrected in October 1970 and March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include West Smithfield, Long Lane, Cloth Street, Newbury Street, Middle Street and Cross Keys Square.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371704635739,"sku":"P-9-001107","price":190.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001107a_496abc18-0be4-49e8-981d-f4ae9fddb573.jpg?v=1792148999"},{"product_id":"goad-london-47-ec1-smithfield-central-meat-market-st-john-street-1960-1969-map-p-9-001111","title":"Goad London 47—EC1—Smithfield—Central Meat Market—St John Street 1960 (1969) map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 47 [Smithfield Central Meat Market, St John Street, Charterhouse Street and Cowcross Street]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eGoad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 47, covers Smithfield Central Meat Market and St John Street (EC1), home to a trade now in its last years here. The sheet shows the London Central Meat Market surrounded and underpinned by cold stores and railway goods depots, with Grand Avenue, East Poultry Avenue, Lindsey Street and Long Lane among the streets around it. The sidings beneath the market closed in the 1960s, and in 2024 the City abandoned the move to Dagenham, with traders staying until at least 2028. Fabric, which has been in the renovated Metropolitan Cold Stores on Charterhouse Street since 1999, stands for the nightlife that followed. The LCC Smithfield Technical Institute taught butchery and refrigeration until it closed in the 1980s, and across Charterhouse Square the Charterhouse almshouse opened to the public in 2017. Insurers rated property and fire risk from these plans, which were kept current with pasted overlays recording changed uses, altered layouts, demolition and new building. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in February 1960, with a 1960 copyright date, and it carries a latest dated correction of September 1969.

A priory of 1371 and Thomas Sutton's almshouse since 1611, it is drawn court by court, with its chapel and Great Hall, Master's Court, Preachers' Court and Wash House Court. In 1952 the Great Hall and Master's Court, which had been burnt out in the Blitz, were midway through their 1950–59 restoration. The almshouse still houses its Brothers, and it opened a museum in January 2017. St Bartholomew's Medical College, which has been in the former school buildings since 1933, remains a Barts medical campus. The station is labelled Aldersgate and Barbican, a name that was dropped in December 1968. The corner of Long Lane and Lindsey Street now holds Farringdon's Elizabeth line ticket hall, which opened in May 2022. The mantle factory in Glasshouse Yard, gown and millinery premises and nearby typesetters reveal a working district of clothing and print trades beside the Charterhouse. Glasshouse Yard later became home to Audible's UK headquarters and recording studios, bringing digital audio publishing into this former manufacturing quarter. Kept for insurers rating property and fire risk, the sheet carries pasted slips recording changed uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding, and its latest dated correction is March 1970. It was resurveyed and reissued in June 1952, with a 1952 copyright date, and key plans acquired with the group were corrected as late as October 1970 and March 1971.

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.

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.
