This publication shows street
mapping of London as it was before the
Second World War bombing and the
redevelopments that followed and may be
of assistance in tracing family history
for that period. The coverage extends
from central London to Edgware,
Whetstone, Palmers Green, Edmonton,
Walthamstow, Snaresbrook, Seven Kings,
Barking, Silvertown, Plumstead,
Kidbrooke, Bellingham, South Sydenham,
Croydon, Streatham Common, Morden,
Wimbledon Common, Twickenham, Richmond,
Kew, Hanwell, Ealing Broadway, Wembley,
Harrow and Wealdstone.
A foldout coloured Pictorial Map of
Central London is attached to the inside
back cover and this map features the
locations of principal landmarks and
places of interest using three
dimensional drawings. The
original printing of this paperback
street atlas before the Second World War
was in black only; however, this
facsimile reproduction has been printed
in colours which simulate the current
condition after its ageing over many
years. |
