Charles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 407 [Camden: Oval Road, Jamestown Road, Regent's Canal and Gloucester Crescent]
Goad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 407, covers Camden at Oval Road and Regent's Canal (NW1), and it follows one site through three lives. The former Gilbey premises beside Oval Road and Jamestown Road are labelled Shipton Automation's electrical-component workshops and warehousing. Their conversion as Gilbey House apartments in 1997 carried the site from drink through engineering to housing. The circular former Collard and Collard piano factory at 12 Oval Road is not named on the sheet, and it is now offices. The rest of the sheet shows Camden goods shed, the National Carriers trailer park, R. Deards Ltd transport contractors' garage and the London Borough of Camden engineers' depot. This reissue supersedes the March 1891 outline edition, which is marked obsolete and preserves Gilbey's industrial complex and Collard's piano works before clearance for trailer parking. Fire risk was priced from plans such as this, which were kept current by slips recording changed uses, altered layouts, demolition and new building. Vacancy labels by Jamestown Road, dated February 1970, are the latest dated correction on this sheet. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in August 1954, with a 1954 copyright date, and a South London key plan from the same group records corrections to March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Gloucester Crescent, Arlington Road and Inverness Street.
