Charles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 258–259 [Southwark Bridge Road, Great Suffolk Street and Borough Road]
Goad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 258–259, covers the Borough around Great Suffolk Street, Southwark Bridge Road and Borough Road (SE1), a working quarter that then served Fleet Street and the drinks trade. Here C. C. Dane Ltd's saw and knife factory stood near warehouses for Associated Newspapers and the Bass Charrington Vintners wines, spirits and beers warehouse. Associated Newspapers left the Fleet Street district for Kensington at the end of the 1980s. Printers' and electrical-goods warehouses rounded out this mix of metalworking, print supply and wholesale trade, which sat among an L.C.C. school, flats and shops. Lant Street, where the young Charles Dickens lodged in 1824 while his father was in the Marshalsea, also crosses the sheet. Goad revised these risk plans with pasted overlays as uses changed and as buildings were altered, demolished or replaced. The printed base heading is dated June 1889, with a 1950 copyright date. The sheet's latest dated corrections are vacancy labels on amended blocks, dated March 1971, and a key plan acquired with the group also records corrections to March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Webber Street, Glasshill Street, King's Bench Street, King James Street, Lancaster Street, Bittern Street, Toulmin Street and Pickwick Street.
