The plan shows the River Thames crossed by Westminster Bridge, Lambeth Bridge, Blackfriars Bridge and Southwark Bridge, with Waterloo Station, St Thomas' Hospital and Lambeth Palace beside it. The great change is Bethlehem Hospital on Lambeth Road, where the asylum left for Beckenham in 1930 and its building reopened as the Imperial War Museum in July 1936. Lambeth Palace remains the Archbishop of Canterbury's residence, while Waterloo served as the Eurostar terminal from 1994 to 2007. The key plan shows which detailed sheet covers each block. Those detailed sheets were used to assess property and fire risk, and they were kept current with pasted overlays recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and new building. The key plan itself retains its June 1889 base heading and explicitly records revision to March 1971.

This March 1965 reissue records the centre, the School of Printing, roundabouts and pedestrian subways, which had replaced the industrial plots around Taylor's Yard, Draper Street and Black Prince Court. That comprehensive redevelopment has itself since been swept away. The centre closed in 2020 and was demolished in 2021 for shops, homes and a London College of Communication campus, which is the planned 2027 home of the former L.C.C. School of Printing and Graphic Arts. The sheet also names Spurgeon's Metropolitan Tabernacle, the London Transport Executive electricity substation, built in 1961 as the Michael Faraday Memorial, and the Elephant and Castle cinema, railway station and Underground station. The cinema later became the Coronet, whose live-music phase ran from 2003 to 2018 and included Justin Timberlake, Mumford \u0026amp; Sons and Tom Jones, who performed in March 2014.

It shows Spurgeon's Metropolitan Tabernacle as built, before the fire of 1898, the bombing of 1941 and the smaller rebuilding of 1957. At the time of the plan, Pastor's College and the Elephant and Castle Theatre, in Frank Matcham's rebuilding of 1879, stood beside Elephant and Castle station, Newington National School, the Drapers' Almshouses, Rabbits \u0026amp; Sons and a sperm-oil works. The college later became Spurgeon's College in South Norwood and closed in 2025, while the theatre later became the Coronet cinema, then a live-music venue from 2003 to 2018. Justin Timberlake, Mumford \u0026amp; Sons and Tom Jones, who appeared in March 2014, played there long after the theatrical use shown on this outline; the building was demolished in 2021. The outline records footprints with less occupancy and risk detail than the coloured plans, and it preserves Taylors Depository, Draper Street, Black Prince Court and industrial plots. A coloured edition reissued in March 1965 shows them replaced by the Elephant and Castle shopping centre, the School of Printing, roundabouts and pedestrian subways.

That early-1960s block was demolished for Strata, the 43-storey residential tower with rooftop wind turbines, which was completed in 2010 and won that year's Carbuncle Cup. This was a conspicuous change from office employment to high-rise housing.

The Southwark municipal offices shown here then occupied the former Newington Vestry Hall, which opened in 1865. Together with Southwark Central Library, that building forms what is now Walworth Town Hall. The town hall was badly damaged by a roof fire in March 2013, and it reopened at the turn of 2025 as workspace, a community centre and a café. Nearby, the sheet shows the Southwark Health Services Department, the Southern Region railway coal depot, the G.P.O. sorting office, cold stores, the Labour Hall and the Browning Settlement. Coal storage, sausage and cooked-meat manufacture, coachbuilding and vehicle repairs together reveal the businesses that kept the city supplied with fuel, food and transport. The South Central East and West housing developments subsequently introduced a substantial residential use along this working railway corridor. The settlement was founded in 1895, and its campaign helped win old-age pensions in 1908. Elsewhere, the sheet shows a former chapel plot that had become motor premises and cleared ground.
