Cassini’s London 5-Map Box Set helps peel away successive layers of development that transformed London from a city of a million people at the start of the 19th century to one of nearly nine million by the early 1940s. The four 1:50,000 maps (from 1805-22, 1897-98, 1920 and 1945-48) cover an identical area, stretching from Enfield to Croydon and from Southall to Romford. This common format and the addition of the familiar National Grid make comparisons across the generations easy and accurate.
