Nelson Square was laid out around 1807, and Shelley lodged there in 1814, but the square lost its terraces to bombing. On this sheet the square is reshaped by Southwark's council blocks of 1956–64, namely Rowland Hill House, Vaughan House and Helen Gladstone House, which still stand today. In the Kennington inset, the sheet records substantial housing redevelopment, with Cottington Close replacing the older street-and-plot arrangement. The sheet also names Pakeman House, the Police Section House, Brutus Court and the Southern Region Railway arches, as well as the London Trustee Savings Bank, which later merged into Lloyds TSB. Sawmilling, joinery, engineering and storage premises around Great Suffolk Street and the railway arches show the productive work among Southwark's housing. The Union Theatre's later home in the Old Union Yard Arches on Union Street exemplifies the reuse of this railway fabric for culture and leisure. Goad's plans were made to assess property and fire risk, and they took pasted overlays recording changed uses, demolition and rebuilding. Premises in the Newington inset are marked vacant in May 1968, and the latest dated correction, of March 1971, is a vacancy note on the north side of Hurlbutt Place. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in January 1956, with a 1956 copyright date, and the key plan acquired with the group records corrections to March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Surrey Row, Pocock Street, Crampton Street, Newington Butts and Kennington Lane.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371784589659,"sku":"P-9-001234","price":170.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001234a_2bcec49c-ddd7-4b4f-8619-96592ea2c198.jpg?v=1792149309"},{"product_id":"goad-london-248-se1-southwark-nelson-square-blackfriars-rd-surrey-row-1952-map-p-9-001235","title":"Goad London 248—SE1—Southwark—Nelson Square—Blackfriars Rd—Surrey Row 1952 map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 248 [Southwark: Nelson Square, Blackfriars Road and Great Suffolk Street, with insets — 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 248, covers Nelson Square, Blackfriars Road, Union Street and Great Suffolk Street in Southwark, with Newington Butts and Kennington Lane insets (SE1, SE11 and SE17). It catches Nelson Square on the eve of clearance. The square was laid out around 1807, and Shelley lodged there in 1814. It had lost many houses to bombing, and by 1950 the council was acquiring it all for housing. This outline of November 1952 preserves the Georgian street-and-plot framework that council blocks replaced between 1956 and 1964. Later coloured revisions record the change, with the Rowland Hill, Vaughan and Helen Gladstone blocks around the square and Cottington Close in the Kennington inset. The sheet also names Pakeman House and the Southern Region Railway approaches. Outlines record streets, building footprints and plot divisions with less occupancy and risk detail than the coloured plans. Both kinds of plan served to weigh property and fire risk, and both were amended with pasted overlays as uses changed and buildings were replaced. No later pasted corrections have been identified on this outline edition, and the key plan acquired with the group records corrections to March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Surrey Row, Pocock Street and Crampton Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371784622427,"sku":"P-9-001235","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001235a_b971ad61-b517-4646-a9a5-114cb693d3e1.jpg?v=1792149311"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/collections\/surrey-row.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
