Charles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 10 [St Paul's Cathedral, St Paul's Churchyard, Paternoster Row and Cheapside]
Goad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 10, covers St Paul's Cathedral and Paternoster Row (EC4), with the cathedral dome and towers, the Queen Anne statue and the Remembrance Garden at its centre. Car parks north of the cathedral and a bank-and-office development beside Cheapside are shown under construction in December 1969, so the sheet holds the redevelopment at an intermediate stage. The Central Electricity Generating Board offices, meanwhile, belonged to an earlier Paternoster Square, which was rebuilt again and reopened in 2003 with the London Stock Exchange among its offices and shops. The St Paul's Cathedral Choir School, in its New Change buildings of the 1960s, still trains the cathedral's boy choristers, who have been joined by girls since September 2025. The City information centre was rehoused in 2007, while St Paul's itself remains the sheet's fixed landmark. The plan was compiled to price fire risk and revised with pasted overlays recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and new building, and December 1969 is its latest dated correction. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in November 1962, with a 1962 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 St Paul's Churchyard, Ludgate Hill, Newgate Street, Cannon Street, Carter Lane and Godliman Street.
