Charles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 287 [Walworth Road, Newington Butts and Hampton Street]
Goad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 287, covers Walworth Road and Newington Butts (SE17 and SE1), and it shows Castle House still in use as offices at their junction. That early-1960s block was demolished for Strata, the 43-storey residential tower with rooftop wind turbines, which was completed in 2010 and won that year's Carbuncle Cup. This was a conspicuous change from office employment to high-rise housing. The sheet also shows larger housing developments, including Wollaston Close and Draper House, the London County Council tower of 1965, consolidating older plots around Walworth Road, Brune Place and Clock Place. It names a Metropolitan Police garage, Victorian terraced shops and Southern Region railway arches as well. Goad prepared these plans for insurers judging fire risk and kept them current with pasted overlays recording changes of use, demolition and new construction. The printed base heading is dated June 1901, with a 1950 copyright date. Vacancy annotations on Walworth Road and Deacon Street are dated March 1971, which is later than a March 1965 note near Brune Place. They are the latest dated corrections, matching the key plan acquired with the group. Other streets on the sheet include Elephant Road, Sayer Street, Hampton Street, Steedman Street and Crampton Street.
