HGIS data of Greater London's Industry 1893-95
<p>Based on the First Revised Series of the Ordnance Survey London Town Plans. You can find a different version of the Georeferenced maps on the National Library of Scotland website: </p> <p><a href="https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=11&lat=51.4907&lon=-0.1331&layers=163&b=1">https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=11&lat=51.4907&lon=-0.1331&layers=163&b=1</a></p> <p>Each factory is coded to indicate whether it is on both or just one of the two 19th century series of Ordnance Survey London Town Plans. I have also tried to catagorize the factories. There are some other incomplete fields or fields used in earlier versions of this database.</p> <p>Data used in Jim Clifford, <em>West Ham and the River Lea A Social and Environmental History of London’s Industrialized Marshland, 1839–1914</em>, UBC Press, 2017, https://www.ubcpress.ca/west-ham-and-the-river-lea</p>
