In this volume the author explains how and why London's tradition of ground plans arose, who the surveyors and their customers were and what the colourful plans tell us about the buildings and their occupants. Most of the 197 plans have never previously been published and range from houses, large and small, to warehouses, wharves, industrial premises, markets, inns, company halls and so on.
