Description

Title: Cruchley's New Plan of London shewing all the new and intended improvements to the present time.

A detailed plan of Victorian London stretching from East India Docks and West Ham marshes in the east to Kensington Gardens in the west and Kings Cross in the north to Vauxhall in the south. Shows Charing Cross Suspension Bridge (constructed by I K Brunel), a pedestrian bridge from Belvidere Row, Lambeth to Hungerford Market (the future site of Charing Cross Terminus).

Dissected and laid on linen. Generally in good condition but needs cleaning although the three additional section on the right side are clean and bright.

Not in Howgego.

Hyde D&H 307/B mentions a map c. 1851 i.e with no date.This map does in fact have a date in the bottom left corner which reads 'A new edition improved to Jan 1st 1854' whilst the slip case shows the date as 1855. The size differs to that given by Howgego (14 7/8" x 31 3/4"). Slip case in good condition although the title note is damaged.
