At the time, Associated Newspapers' machine rooms, linotype departments and paper stores at Carmelite House and New Carmelite House made newspaper production a heavy industry on the River Thames. The presses ran until the late 1980s, when the paper moved to Kensington. Publishing keeps a foothold here today, though without the machinery, through Hachette's headquarters at Carmelite House. The sheet also names the United Newspapers premises, Temple House and Audit House. The Guildhall School of Music is shown in its building of 1886 on John Carpenter Street, which it left for the Barbican in 1977. Sion College closed its library and left the Embankment in 1996, and its building is now offices. The plan was made to rate property and fire risk and was kept current with pasted slips marking changed uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding, though none of the slips is dated. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in January 1946, with a 1950 copyright date, and the key plans acquired with the group were corrected as late as October 1970 and March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Tallis Street, Carmelite Street and King's Bench Walk.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371756671323,"sku":"P-9-001196","price":210.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001196a_4db6036f-bf2f-491c-bb92-94440d5591dd.jpg?v=1792149212"},{"product_id":"goad-london-29-ec4-blackfriars-bridge-unilever-house-embankment-1948-c1969-map-p-9-001197","title":"Goad London 29—EC4—Blackfriars Bridge—Unilever House—Embankment 1948 (c1969) map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 29 [Blackfriars Bridge, Victoria Embankment, Unilever House and City of London School]\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 29, covers Blackfriars Bridge and Victoria Embankment (EC4), and it shows the City of London School on a riverside site with a playground, swimming bath and gymnasium. The school moved east along the river in 1986, and its Embankment building of 1883, which still has the school's name over the door, became part of J.P. Morgan's office and conference complex. Unilever House, finished in 1933, is still Unilever's, whereas in the sheet's day the Spicers offices on New Bridge Street housed the paper makers taken over by Reed in 1963. The Blackfriars Station subway, Blackfriars underpass and slip-road overlays record the remaking of the riverfront road system beside the school and large commercial buildings. The station itself was rebuilt in 2009-12 to span the River Thames. The plan was kept current for insurers assessing property and fire risk, and it carries pasted revisions recording changed uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding, though none of them is dated. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in February 1948, with a 1950 copyright date, and it belongs to a group whose key plans were still being corrected in October 1970 and March 1971.
