It catches Nelson Square on the eve of clearance. The square was laid out around 1807, and Shelley lodged there in 1814. It had lost many houses to bombing, and by 1950 the council was acquiring it all for housing. This outline of November 1952 preserves the Georgian street-and-plot framework that council blocks replaced between 1956 and 1964. Later coloured revisions record the change, with the Rowland Hill, Vaughan and Helen Gladstone blocks around the square and Cottington Close in the Kennington inset. The sheet also names Pakeman House and the Southern Region Railway approaches. Outlines record streets, building footprints and plot divisions with less occupancy and risk detail than the coloured plans. Both kinds of plan served to weigh property and fire risk, and both were amended with pasted overlays as uses changed and buildings were replaced. No later pasted corrections have been identified on this outline edition, and the key plan acquired with the group records corrections to March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Surrey Row, Pocock Street and Crampton Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371784622427,"sku":"P-9-001235","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001235a_b971ad61-b517-4646-a9a5-114cb693d3e1.jpg?v=1792149311","url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/fr\/products\/goad-london-248-se1-southwark-nelson-square-blackfriars-rd-surrey-row-1952-map-p-9-001235","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
