Stanford's Library Map Of London And Its Suburbs... Sheet 8 : E. Stanford

click here to view a large version in a separate window

 This sheet of a highly detailed 24-sheet map of London was coloured to show geological detail by James B. Jordan. With street names and detail visible beneath the colour wash, this is a fascinating series showing detail of many parts of present-day London, then villages on the outskirts, or just absorbed into the urban sprawl of the Victorian city. A detailed map showing Bow, Stratford, Hackney Wick and Victoria Park with the River Lea and railways prominent. The map is sheet 8 (of 24) of Stanford's large and magnificent "Library Map Of London And Its Suburbs" and has additional interest as the site of 2012's Olympic Park. A brief key to the colours. Light Greyish Brown - London Clay. Bright Tan - Gravel & Sand. Very pale Beige - Alluvium. Blue - Woolwich & Reading Beds.
