Charles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 236 [Lambeth: St Thomas' Hospital, County Hall, Westminster Bridge Road and Lambeth Palace Road — uncoloured outline]
Goad's uncoloured outline fire insurance plan of London, sheet 236, covers Lambeth (SE1) and preserves streets that St Thomas' Hospital has since swallowed. In the sheet's day, Paris Street, Sudbury Street, Crozier Street, Mytton Row and Stangate Street lay between Lambeth Palace Road, New Lambeth Palace Road and Upper Marsh. These streets were demolished in the 1960s rebuilding, which also realigned Lambeth Palace Road. The sheet also draws the St Thomas' Hospital outline, St Thomas' House, the L.C.C. County Hall outline and County Hall South Block, together with the edge of Archbishop's Park, which opened in 1901. County Hall itself now houses hotels and attractions, and its South Block is now apartments. This outline edition, reissued in February 1959, gives footprints and plot divisions with less occupancy and risk detail than the coloured plans. Goad's plans were used to judge property and fire risk, and they were amended with pasted overlays as uses changed, layouts altered and buildings came down or went up. Later coloured revisions record the clearance of those streets for the hospital redevelopment, with a dated annotation in March 1971, and the key plan acquired with the same group records corrections to March 1971. The River Thames, Westminster Bridge Road, Belvedere Road and York Road complete the sheet.
