London Metropolitan Archives Index to London Parishes London Metropolitan Archives Guide to Major Family History Resources Index of Parishes How to use this guide London Generations is a guide to our major family history sources and currently includes the following types of records: Anglican parish registers of baptisms, marriages and burials for around 800 parishes within the former counties of London and Middlesex; Bishops transcripts of parish registers; Anglican parish Poor Law registers; non-conformist baptism and marriage registers; land tax assessments; admission and creed registers for workhouses run by Boards of Guardians; London County Council School admission and discharge registers and electoral registers for the counties of London and Middlesex. This is an index to the parishes in the London area and the location of the records. It contains an alphabetical listing of the parish with its address and the date ranges of the registers for that Church, if known. In addition, you will find an entry for where the registers are located (either at LMA or elsewhere if we are aware of its location) and the name of the current London Borough or County within which the parish can be found. If the records are held at LMA, there should also be a listing giving the reference code for the registers of the parish. You can find more information about LMA’s holdings for that area using the borough guides. The list is correct at the time of publication, but please remember that the information may change over time as newer registers are deposited or become available. Many of the registers held at LMA have now been digitised and are available online at www.ancestry.

  • 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.

  • Farringdon Road, London, EC1R 3EA
    66-86 Farringdon Road, London, EC1R 3EA Independent Viability Review 28th June 2016 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 We have been instructed by Islington Borough Council (‘the Council’) to undertake an independent Viability Review of an April 2016 Viability Assessment that has been prepared by GVA Bilfinger (‘GVA’), in respect of a proposed redevelopment of 66-86 Farringdon Road, London, EC1R 3EA (‘the Site’). 1.2 Together with office agency Crossland Otter Hunt, we previously provided an “Independent Assessment of Office Market Report”, in September 2015, which concluded essentially that the office market is buoyant in the Site’s location and that there is the potential for an office-led scheme in this location to be feasible, subject to this being viability-tested and taking into account site specific circumstances. 1.3 The Site is 0.52 acres and accommodates a multi-storey car park located in the Clerkenwell area, on the eastern side of Farringdon Road. It is circa 1 mile north-west of the City of London and is close to Farringdon Underground Station. It is an ‘island site’ and is bounded by Vineyard Walk to the north, Farringdon Road to the west, Bowling Green Lane to the south, and two-storey terrace houses (known as Catherine Griffiths Court) to the east. 1.4 The current planning application has been submitted by Whitbread Group (the applicant), in collaboration with their development partner, Endurance Land, and entails the following works: “Demolition of existing multi-storey car park and redevelopment to provide a five (plus basement)/ six storey building comprising 3,647 (GEA) / 3,350 (GIA) sq m office floor space (Class B1 Use), 180 bedroom hotel (Class C1 Use) and 407 (GEA)/ 373 (GIA) sq m retail/restaurant floor space (Class A1/A3 Use) with associated facilities, plant, landscaping and servicing”.

  • Introduction
    Official WANDSWORTH BOROUGH COUNCIL BUILDINGS OF SPECIAL ARCHITECTURAL OR HISTORIC INTEREST INTRODUCTION The Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport is required to compile lists of buildings of special architectural or historic interest for the guidance of local planning authorities. Conservation policies are often based on the lists, which are being revised within nationally applied surveys of specific building types. How Buildings are Chosen The principles of selection for these lists were originally drawn up by an expert committee of architects, antiquarians and historians, and are still followed, although now adapted to thematic surveys and Post-War buildings. Buildings that qualify for listing are:- (a) All buildings before 1700 which survive in anything like their original condition. (b) Most buildings between 1700-1840, though some selection is necessary. (c) Between 1840 and 1914 only buildings of definite quality and character, the selection being designed to include the best examples of particular building types. (d) Selected buildings from the period after 1914 are selected on the same basis. (e) Buildings under 30 years old (but more than ten) are normally listed only if they are of outstanding quality and under threat. In choosing buildings, particular attention is paid to:- � Special value within certain types, either for architectural or planning reasons or as illustrating social and economic history (for instance, industrial buildings, railway stations, schools, hospitals, prisons, theatres). � Technological innovation or virtuosity (for instance cast iron, prefabrication, or the early use of concrete). � Group value, especially as examples of town planning (for instance, squares, terraces or model estates). � Association with well-known characters or events.
