BOOTH /LSE POVERTY MAP Willesden Acton Hammersmith Fulham Brent W Hampstead 1930

Surveyed by London School of Economics, continuing and extending the earlier survey by Charles Booth. The Consultative committee included Sir William Beveridge, George M. Booth, A.L.Bowley, Sir George Duckworth, G.H.Gater, John Hilton, C.M.Lloyd, Lord Passfield, L.C.Robbins, and Allyn Young. Charles Booth (1840–1916) was an English philanthropist and social researcher. He is best known for his innovative survey documenting London working class life at the end of the 19th century (most famously through his colour-coded poverty maps of the city of which this is one suh map). This work influenced government intervention against poverty in the early 20th century and led to the founding of Old Age pensions. He popularised the concept of the "Poverty Line".
