Mapping Camden: the borough as depicted on maps through the ages: illustrated talks by Gerry Zierler, John King and John Davies

  • Camden Local Studies and Archives Centre, Holborn Library 32-38 Theobalds Road London, WC1X 8PA UK (map)

Every map tells a story, and our speakers look at a variety of maps, from the familiar to the secret, depicting Camden and surroundings through the ages. This presentation is by The Charles Close Society for the Study of Ordnance Survey Maps, whose interests extend to many types of historic and modern mapping of Britain. Copies of the reproduction of a secret military map produced as preparation for the 1926 General Strike will be available for sale on the night.

Admission: Free to CHS members. Non-members welcome (£2 at the door).
