Map of Camberwell, 1891

Map of Camberwell, 1891
Ordnance Survey, surveyed 1863 - 1870 and printed in 1891

 

The most striking feature of this map is the gardens: the detail in which they are shown and their size.

The more exclusive development along Camberwell Grove, Grove Lane, Champion Hill and Denmark Hill are more or less complete, while much of the eastern portion shows open fields awaiting development.
