http://www.bathspa.ac.uk/greenwood/
This web site provides access to a map
of London printed in 1827. The map has been scanned and these Images
are available from the site. The Greenwood map covers an area of
London from Earls Court in the West to the River Lea and Greenwich
in the East, and from Highgate in the North to Camberwell in the
South. The reproduction of the map is good and has been divided
into sections which can be viewed in different sizes. The map is
accompanied by a list of place names, canals and future railway
termini sites, and stairs and wharves on the Thames, all of which
are linked to the relevant section of the map.
