Charles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 280–283 [Lambeth High Street, Black Prince Road, Albert Embankment and the Doulton pottery works]
Goad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 280–283, covers Lambeth between Albert Embankment and Lambeth Walk (SE1 and SE11), which was the home ground of Doulton's stoneware and art pottery. The sheet shows the H. Doulton and Company premises still filling the blocks, although pottery production at Lambeth had ended in 1956. The surviving headquarters of 1878 on Black Prince Road is listed Grade II, and it is now China Works, with offices and studios. Lambeth Walk was the market street immortalised in the song from the 1937 musical Me and My Girl. On this sheet it appears with redevelopment sites and proposed flats and shops among the March 1971 changes, beside Doulton premises that still survived at the time. The sheet also names Lambeth Bridge, the L.C.C. Fire Brigade premises, Whitgift House and the builders Marshall Andrew & Co., and it shows the Old Burial Ground, which had by then become a public garden. Goad's surveyors made these plans to gauge fire risk, and pasted revisions record changes of use, demolition and rebuilding. The printed base heading is dated June 1889, with a 1950 copyright date, and the latest dated correction identified is March 1971, matching the key plan acquired with the group. Other streets on the sheet include Lambeth Road, Lambeth High Street, Old Paradise Street, Newport Street, Black Prince Road, Salamanca Street, Vauxhall Walk, Juxon Street and Randall Row.
