Charles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 133 [Clerkenwell Road, Goswell Road, the Charterhouse and St Bartholomew's Medical College]
Goad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 133, covers the Charterhouse and St Bartholomew's Medical College (EC1), both of which are still in place today. The Charterhouse, Thomas Sutton's almshouse of 1611 on a Carthusian site of 1371, appears here with its Pensioners' Court and The Green. It still houses over forty Brothers, and it opened its museum in January 2017. St Bartholomew's Medical College, shown with its medical laboratories and lecture hall, merged into Queen Mary in 1995 as Barts and The London, which keeps the Charterhouse Square campus. North of Clerkenwell Road, by contrast, clothing factories and textile and leather trades then filled the blocks beside the Allied Breweries garage, marking a sharp division between the district's working and institutional halves. The plans were compiled to assess property and fire risk, and they carry pasted overlays recording changes of use, altered layouts, demolition and new building. The last dated correction on this sheet is March 1970. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in June 1952, with a 1952 copyright date, and the key plans acquired with it carry corrections as late as October 1970 and March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include St John Street, Northburgh Street, Great Sutton Street, Berry Street, Goswell Road and Charterhouse Buildings.
