  • London and Middlesex in the 1660S Introduction: the Early Modern
    London and Middlesex in the 1660s Introduction: The early modern metropolis first comes into sharp visual focus in the middle of the seventeenth century, for a number of reasons. Most obviously this is the period when Wenceslas Hollar was depicting the capital and its inhabitants, with views of Covent Garden, the Royal Exchange, London women, his great panoramic view from Milbank to Greenwich, and his vignettes of palaces and country-houses in the environs. His oblique birds-eye map- view of Drury Lane and Covent Garden around 1660 offers an extraordinary level of detail of the streetscape and architectural texture of the area, from great mansions to modest cottages, while the map of the burnt city he issued shortly after the Fire of 1666 preserves a record of the medieval street-plan, dotted with churches and public buildings, as well as giving a glimpse of the unburned areas.1 Although the Fire destroyed most of the historic core of London, the need to rebuild the burnt city generated numerous surveys, plans, and written accounts of individual properties, and stimulated the production of a new and large-scale map of the city in 1676.2 Late-seventeenth-century maps of London included more of the spreading suburbs, east and west, while outer Middlesex was covered in rather less detail by county maps such as that of 1667, published by Richard Blome [Fig. 5]. In addition to the visual representations of mid-seventeenth-century London, a wider range of documentary sources for the city and its people becomes available to the historian.

This profile is intended to provide summary information on the health of the local population, to inform residents and support decision making. For more information on the health indicators found in this report, please see Hackney’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment – www.hackney.gov.uk/jsna More general Ward level information can be found on the council’s Shared Evidence Base website.1 There is also more information on Public Health England’s Local Health website,2 and the GLA also produces Ward level information.3 Notes on the data: Data sources: Much of the data come from local health services, including GP data extracted from EMIS via the Clinical Effectiveness Group at Queen Mary University. These data relate to diagnosed or recorded conditions so will not include undetected illness. In April 2015, geographically coded data were unavailable from 2 practices using a different IT system (the Dalston Practice in Hackney Central, and the Abney House Practice in Stoke Newington) – this makes the data for these areas somewhat less reliable, and will be improved in future versions of these profiles.

  • City Fringe Living Emerging As a Prime Location 2–3
    November 2015 City Fringe living Emerging as a prime location 2–3 Introduction The once under appreciated City Fringe is now an in-demand location in London, both for business and as a place to live. Its transformation was originally set in motion in the 1980s when a pioneer population of artists and other creatives established themselves in Shoreditch, Hoxton and Clerkenwell. This creative demographic created the eclectic neighbourhoods we know today and precipitated a general and continued eastward migration across London. More recently, the enhanced aesthetic of the Fringe, combined with a constrained supply of new homes in the City, has seen a huge number of City workers move into the area. Driven by a desire to live close to their place of work, and the relative affluence of a city career, this influx has cemented the rise of the City Fringe. With employment in the City forecast to grow by a further 50,000 by 2026, demand for homes in the City Fringe will become even higher. The movement of people into the City Fringe was also mirrored by businesses that saw it as an increasingly viable office location. In fact, some Fringe locations, such as Shoreditch and Clerkenwell, are now firmly established and in many cases now considered core office markets. Recently, the increasing employment base in the City Fringe has been further expanded by the development of Tech City in Shoreditch. What began as a cluster of digital companies around Old Street roundabout has resulted in huge growth of the technology sector throughout the City Fringe, and many companies have seen employment grow at six times the national average.

  • Protestation Returns Document
    WEST MIDDLESEX FAMILY HISTORY SOCIETY THE 1641 - 42 PROTESTATION OF MIDDLESEX Oliver Cromwell outside the Houses of Parliament. The oath In 1641 Parliament decreed that ALL males over the age of 18 should swear an “Oath of Allegiance” to the Protestant Church of England, Parliament and the King Charles. Although many parts of England have no record of these returns, the returns for Middlesex include 16,600 names, which it is estimated are 80% of the total returns due for the county. The following is the oath which each male had to swear:- I,......................, do, in the Presence of Almighty God, promise, vow, and protest to maintain and defend, as far as lawfully I may, I with my Life, Power, and Estate, the true Reformed Protestant Religion, expressed in the Doctrine of the Church of England, against all Popery and Popish Innovations, within this Realm, contrary to the same Doctrine, and according to the Duty of my Allegiance, to His Majesty's Royal Person, Honour, and Estate, as also the Power and Privileges of Parliaments, the lawful Rights and Liberties of the Subjects, and every Person that maketh this Protestation, in whatsoever he shall do in the lawful Pursuance of the same; and to my power, and as far as lawfully I may, I will oppose and by all good Ways and Means endeavour to bring to condign Punishment all such as shall, either by Force, Practice, Counsels, Plots, Conspiracies, or otherwise, do any Thing to the contrary of any Thing in this present Protestation contained; and further, that I shall, in all just and honourable Ways, endeavour to preserve the Union and Peace betwixt the Three Kingdoms of England, Scotland, and Ireland: and neither for Hope, Fear, nor other Respect, shall relinquish this Promise, Vow, and Protestation." © House of Lords Records Office.
