    • Here are the details of maps for Lewisham:

  • London Sheet 119.3 Lewisham 1914 - published 2005; intro by John Coulter. ISBN.978-1-84151-816-9

    The two versions of this map show how the area developed across the years, becoming more built up. The maps each cover the same area, stretching from Algernon Road and Ladywell station eastward to Lee Road and Burnt Ash Road; from Lewisham Bridge and Belmont Hill southward to Hither Green station. The map therefore really covers the centre and south of Lewisham town (not the station) and much of Lee. Features include Ladywell, High Street, High Road, Lee Green, Lewisham Park, workhouse. Churches include St Stephen's Lewisham, St Mark's, St Swithun's, The Good Shepherd Handen Road, Holy Trinity Lee, Christ Church Lee. Streets include Lee Park, Wantage Road, Blessington Road, Brookbank Road, Hither Green Lane and many more. Both maps include extracts from contemporary street directories.

    The map links up with Sheets 105 Blackheath to the north, 118 Brockley to the west, 120 Eltham to the east and 129 Catford to the south.
