The 1807 Hyatt map William Hyett produced an amazingly accurate map of the London countryside in 1807, using just pen and paper. An interior decorator with royal patronage, Frederick Crace amassed some 1200 printed and hand-drawn maps charting the development of the city and its immediate vicinity from around 1570 to 1860. A couple of these maps date from 1807 as William Hyett put pen and ink to paper and drew a remarkable accurate view of the then countryside around north and west London.

Little Venice (1952) This is one of a large series of London views that Stephen Bone executed from the 1930s to the 1950s. Bone liked to paint water and its reflections, and often combined this with compositions showing people going about their daily business, a combination which is the subject of this picture. A barge, hung with its owner’s washing, travels along the canal. Two children play along the banks, and a man sits on the railings overhead, enjoying the view.

An 1800-era map of the future area of Bayswater I walked across the area depicted on this map (which is one of mine, featured on www.theundergroundmap.com) My modern walk went from Bayswater station to Paddington station in as straight a line as I could achieve through the streetscape. But to be fair to the street designers, back in 1800 I’d have been climbing hedges and jumping across the River Westbourne. Video: https://youtu.be/UjwOFgg5REY
