Description (What the record is about)

London: Improvements. Plan of a new street to be formed from the north end of Commercial Street to Shoreditch and to be called Commercial Street, referred to in an Act of Parliament of 9 & 10 Victoria [1846]. Scale: 1 inch to 40 feet. Signed by the Commissioners of Her Majesty's Treasury, and by James Pennethorne. The original Ministry of Works catalogue card dates this plan to 1834, but the date of the relevant Act suggests that that dating must be incorrect.
