The Central School of Arts and Crafts appears here under a name that was dropped in 1966, in the Southampton Row building that its successor, Central Saint Martins, left for King's Cross in 2011. Holy Trinity Church of 1909–11 had closed by 1991 and became the Aviation House offices behind its retained front, whereas the Church of St Anselm and St Cecilia remains a working parish. The Midland Bank is labelled with a name that HSBC retired in 1999, and the sheet also names the London Electricity Board substation and Holborn Underground Station. Goad's sheets were working plans for assessing property and fire risk, and they were kept current with pasted overlays recording changes of use, altered layouts, demolition and new building. On this sheet the latest dated corrections are vacancy annotations of September 1970. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in August 1944, 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 Bloomsbury Square, Sicilian Avenue, Vernon Place, Fisher Street, Catton Street, Newton Street, Parker Street, Great Queen Street, Gate Street, New Turnstile and Remnant Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371748413787,"sku":"P-9-001164","price":190.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001164a_3e0458b1-9c51-4b6b-a694-dcaaaa430616.jpg?v=1792149130"},{"product_id":"goad-london-203-wc1-wc2-high-holborn-lincoln-s-inn-fields-1960-1970-old-map-p-9-001165","title":"Goad London 203—WC1\/WC2—High Holborn—Lincoln's Inn Fields 1960 (1970) old map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 203 [Holborn: High Holborn, Lincoln's Inn Fields, Red Lion Square and Pearl Assurance buildings]\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 203, covers High Holborn between Red Lion Square and Lincoln's Inn Fields (WC1 and WC2), a stretch then dominated by Pearl Assurance's extensive premises. The complex was Pearl's headquarters from 1914 to 1989, and at the time of the resurvey it had just been completed with its west block of 1959–60. It is now the Rosewood London hotel, with its former banking hall used for dining, and it stands as a clear case of insurance offices turned over to hospitality. Nearby, the sheet shows Beckley House, New Century House, Holborn Telephone Exchange, the London Electricity Board workshops and Procter House bridging Procter Street. Red Lion Square still has Conway Hall, which has been the ethical society's home since 1929. Goad's plans were drawn to assess property and fire risk, and they were revised with pasted overlays recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The latest dated corrections on this sheet are vacancy annotations in block 1934, dated September 1970. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in October 1960, with a 1960 copyright date, and the key plans acquired with it carry corrections as late as October 1970 and March 1971.
