The sheet shows Compton Buildings, which were artisans' dwellings of 1871–7 with 371 flats. They reached the end of their leases in 1970, the year of the sheet's last dated correction, and Islington's Triangle estate replaced them in 1970–6. Beside the older commercial frontages, the sheet also records the blocks of post-war redevelopment, namely Tompion House, Earnshaw House, Grimthorpe House and Grayle House. Tompion House and Earnshaw House of 1946–9 were named after the clockmakers Tompion and Earnshaw, and Grimthorpe House was the LCC's 128-flat block of 1950–2. The LCC school shown on Compton Street, built in 1880–1, has been SS Peter and Paul Roman Catholic primary since 1978, and the Liverpool Shoe Company warehouse is also named. Printers and bookbinders around Northburgh Street and Goswell Road, a clothing factory and stores for graphic products and business machines reveal the commercial work behind the housing. Northburgh Street's later role in Clerkenwell's design economy is exemplified by NaughtOne's furniture showroom in the Old Trading House, a converted Victorian warehouse. The plans were kept for fire-risk assessment, and they carry pasted overlays recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The last dated correction on this sheet is March 1970. The sheet was reissued in July 1936, with a 1950 copyright date, and key plans acquired with the group were corrected as late as October 1970 and March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Percival Street, Malta Street, Cyrus Street, Dallington Street, Bastwick Street and Northburgh Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371733995867,"sku":"P-9-001139","price":180.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001139a.jpg?v=1792090173"},{"product_id":"goad-london-133-ec1-clerkenwell-charterhouse-goswell-rd-berry-st-1952-1970-map-p-9-001141","title":"Goad London 133—EC1—Clerkenwell—Charterhouse—Goswell Rd—Berry St 1952 (1970) map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 133 [Clerkenwell Road, Goswell Road, the Charterhouse and St Bartholomew's Medical College]\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 133, covers the Charterhouse and St Bartholomew's Medical College (EC1), both of which are still in place today. The Charterhouse, Thomas Sutton's almshouse of 1611 on a Carthusian site of 1371, appears here with its Pensioners' Court and The Green. It still houses over forty Brothers, and it opened its museum in January 2017. St Bartholomew's Medical College, shown with its medical laboratories and lecture hall, merged into Queen Mary in 1995 as Barts and The London, which keeps the Charterhouse Square campus. North of Clerkenwell Road, by contrast, clothing factories and textile and leather trades then filled the blocks beside the Allied Breweries garage, marking a sharp division between the district's working and institutional halves. The plans were compiled to assess property and fire risk, and they carry pasted overlays recording changes of use, altered layouts, demolition and new building.

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.

In the sheet's day, gown and costume factories, textile warehouses and the College of Fashion Clothing Technology made clothing an industrial and technical occupation here, far from the West End's shops. The London College of Fashion kept a Golden Lane site until it moved to Stratford in 2023. The Golden Lane Estate swimming pool, Crescent House, Hatfield House and Basterfield House are Chamberlin, Powell and Bon's work of 1957–62, and they were listed in 1997. The sheet also shows the Sir Stafford Cripps Estate, Finsbury Borough Council's three twelve-storey blocks approved in 1951, and it names British Olivetti premises and HM Stationery Office.
