  • Thegenealogist​ Announces the Release of Islington Lloyd George
    TheGenealogist announces the release of Islington Lloyd George Domesday Survey records. These ​ cover land owners and occupiers in 1910-1915 with over 70,000 individuals recorded, joining the previously released data books and their associated maps for other parts of London. This new release is the latest stage of TheGenealogist’s vast ongoing project to digitise over 94,500 Field Books, each having hundreds of pages, and linking them to large scale IR121 annotated OS maps which are now viewable in TheGenealogist’s powerful Map Explorer tool. The records have been sourced from The National Archives and were compiled by the Valuation Office in a period that stretched from 1910-1915 in response to the Lloyd George government passing the People’s Budget 1909/1910. This new release covers records made of property ownership and occupation in Barnsbury, Canonbury, Charterhouse, Clerkenwell, Finsbury, Glasshouse Yard, Highbury East, Highbury West, Lower Holloway, Myddelton, Old Street, Pentonville, Saint Mary, Saint Peter, Saint Sepulchre, Thornhill, Upper Holloway, Upper Holloway East and Upper Holloway West. Collins’ Music Hall identified by TheGenealogist’s map explorer showing the plot on Lloyd George Domesday map Family historians can use these records to: ● Find ancestors who owned or occupied property in the Islington area of London ● See the outlines of their houses on large scale maps from the time ● Fade between historic and modern maps to see how the environment has changed ● Check details of properties in the neighbourhood, by clicking the red pins ● Locate an address from your research down to a specific house on the map ● Search by name, parish and street to uncover ancestors’ property in 1910-1915 Complementing the maps on TheGenealogist’s Map Explorer are the accompanying Field Books which provide detailed information relative to the valuation of each property, including the valuation assessment number, map reference, owner, occupier, situation, description and extent.

  • Mount Pleasant Circus and Fleet Valley Gardens a Case Study of How Streets Are More Popular, More Prosperous and a Better Investment
    THE CULTURE of PROSPERITY THE CULTURE of PROSPERITY ARCHITECTURE OF PROSPERITY | SEPTEMBER 2014 Mount Pleasant Circus and Fleet Valley Gardens A case study of how streets are more popular, more prosperous and a better investment by Nicholas Boys Smith, Paul Murrain, David Taylor, and Francis Terry www.li.com www.prosperity.com www.createstreets.com ARCHITECTURE OF PROSPERITY | 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Without the professionalism and generosity of the expert team at Create Streets and Space Syntax, who put the initial proposal together, the Mount Pleasant Circus proposal would not exist. Paul Murrain, David Taylor, Francis Terry, John Moss, Edward Staite, Nigel Franklin (from calfordseaden), and (from Space Syntax) Tim Stonor all gave their time freely and without any expectation of payment or reward in any way. Several others advised us very materially but wish to remain anonymous. We thank them all. This publication would not exist without the expert guidance and generous support of the Legatum Institute, above all Sian Hansen, Executive Director, Hywel Williams, Senior Adviser, Cristina Odone, Director of Communications, and Harriet Maltby, Economic and Government Policy Researcher, who improved the text immeasurably. John Moss, Nigel Franklin, Edward Staite, and James Wildblood have all helped splendidly with the research, analysis, or drafting for this report. Sammir Lingawi also kindly permitted us to cite his research. But above all we should thank the residents of the Mount Pleasant neighbourhood and the members of the Mount Pleasant Association (Mike Franks, Graeme Weston and Edward Denison) for asking us to work with them to plan a better future for their streets. Alexandra Steed deserves special thanks for her artwork, as does everyone who helped run the survey of residents’ views.

  • Tracking the Fleet River Mark Mccarthy, June 2019
    Tracking the Fleet River Mark McCarthy, June 2019 Where does the Fleet run in Camden Town? As well as several books on ‘the lost rivers of London’, a UCL architecture team compiled a report on the history of the Fleet in 20091. A 2 web page of 2010 presents the Fleet flowing northwards, which is confusing! Yet none of these texts gives a correct statement of the Fleet River in Camden Town. The Fleet’s headwaters are springs and (artificial) ponds between Hampstead and Highgate, and streams, which join at Kentish Town, flow down to St Pancras and onwards, in a deeper valley through Holborn. The Fleet emerges at the Thames in a gully between the two cities of London and Westminster. A geographical study of St Pancras borough by Dr Emily Cooke in 1931 shows contours: The main branch of the Fleet (here labelled ‘Holebourne’) runs from Highgate in the north. It is joined by smaller branches at Kentish Town, a Hampstead branch at Camden Town, and a small branch between Kentish Town Road and Camden Road. (The basis for these tributary lines, however, is not given.) 1 Barton N. The lost rivers of London. 3rd Ed.

    Secret Rivers Large Print 1 Section 1 Secrets of the Thames 2 Display case 1. Middle Bronze Age skull 1260-900 BC Over 250 ancient human skeletal remains have been found along the Thames in London. The majority are prehistoric skulls. London’s rivers provided a focus for human activity including burials. These were susceptible to flooding and the bones washed out. The water current affects bones in different ways; skulls roll and often travel quite some distance. This skull has polishing and scraping, frontal tooth loss and stones wedged in the ear canal, all signs of river movement. Found on the foreshore at Mortlake 3 2. ‘Commentaries on London Mudlarking’, 2016 Roman nicolo glass intaglio This journal, created by Johnny Mudlark, is an illustrated record of his experiences and observations whilst mudlarking along the Thames. A permit is required to search the foreshore and finds must be reported to the Portable Antiquities Scheme. These pages of the journal show the discovery of the intaglio, which was originally set within a finger ring. The dolphin motif suggests a strong connection to the water. Found on the foreshore in the City of London Lent by Johnny Mudlark 4 3. Gilded copper-alloy mount 8th – 9th century Early Medieval Irish finds, such as this mount from a house-shaped shrine, are unusual in London. It was found at the site of a Viking river crossing at Putney. The Vikings travelled extensively using seas and rivers. Was this gilded mount traded or taken during a raid and brought to London? Found on the foreshore at Putney Lent by Bob Wells 5 4.

  • 1. the Nunnery of St. Mary Clerkenwell
    INTRODUCTION i. THE NUNNERY OF ST. MARY CLERKENWELL The nunnery of St. Mary Clerkenwell was situated north-west of the city of London, between the road leading from Smithfield to St. Albans by Islington (the modern St. John Street Road) and the river Fleet, then a considerable ravine, the ' hollow burn ', of which the site is now approximately marked by Fairingdon Road. South of the nunnery lay the priory of the Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem. Considerable remains of the nunnery survived the Dissolution only to be swept away at the end of the eighteenth century, when the rapid growth of the metropolis destroyed many of the vestiges of medieval London which had been spared by the Great Fire owing to their positions beyond the fringes of the areas destroyed. The main lines of the convent's plan can be reconstructed, and show that the cloister lay on the north side of the church, a feature found also at St. Mary Overy's, Southwark, where, as at Clerkenwell, the quieter side would be away from the sunnier south. Representations of some of the architectural details of various periods can still be seen, thanks to water-colour sketches of the late eighteenth century and to the early interest shown in the Gothic manner by Brayley and Carter, who drew some of their architectural examples from the nunnery.1 The nunnery church was partially on the site of the present St. James's, but it stretched farther to the west, a fact which misled the Ordnance Survey into misplacing the position of the cloister.
