Bibliography

p. 344The footnotes to the various chapters indicate the wide range of sources for the study of building and estate development in Victorian London. Details are given here of the principal original and secondary sources used. The latter have been divided into those relating to Battersea and its neighbours, and those which treat London, other towns, or specific themes on a wider canvas. The novels of George Gissing, which provide an invaluable feel for the reality of living in London suburbs in the 1880s and 1890s, have not been cited separately.

Original Sources

1. Wandsworth Local History Collection (Battersea Library, Lavender Hill, SW11)

Both Battersea Borough Council (to 1965) and the London Borough of Wandsworth amassed a substantial archive, which forms the core of this study. The key element is the house deeds, of which there are many thousands, including fifty sacks acquired in 1992 which have not yet been catalogued, and which are used here without specific citation. Drainage applications for houses/groups survive in good numbers from 1879, enabling housebuilders to be identified with their work. Most estates have at least one general plan submitted to the Wandsworth Board of Works, 1860-1914.

Rate books of various kinds survive in a more or less continuous series from the 1750s to 1876, enabling the spread of housing and its value to be traced. There is a good coverage of DBW papers from 1856, along with Battersea Vestry and Borough Council papers.

The South London Press (1865- ) is the key local newspaper, throwing many beams of light on the normally unrecorded activities of developers and builders. The Wandsworth Borough News (1887- ) is less useful for Battersea affairs. The Clapham Gazette (1855-63), although shortlived often mentions Battersea. In addition WLHC has a complete run of The Builder since 1843, along with other specialised building/architectural journals.

Most of the map collection is available elsewhere, although the Tithe Map/Award of 1839 and the 1835/6 Spencer Sale Plans are not so easily accessible as here. Microfilm copies of the Census enumerators’ books for 1841-1891 provide the raw material for studying Victorian society in Battersea, including builders and allied tradesmen.

2. Greater London Record Office (Northampton Road, Clerkenwell)

The key source here is the run of District Surveyors’ Returns (1845-52/1871-1915), which provide the key ingredient for studying the building cycle, the builders and their addresses. Some of those after 1889 are unfit to be used. They are catalogued under MBO (1845-52), MBW (1871-88) or AR/BA/4 (1889- ) references. Like WLHC, the GLRO has a large collection of deeds relating to Battersea estates, mostly in the C/70, B/CHE and B/NTG series. There is also an archive of documents relating to the Archbishop of York’s London properties, mostly pre-1830 in the case of Battersea.

The printed minutes and papers of the MBW and LCC provide information on street approvals, name changes and comments on plans by their architects. The records of the School

p. 345Board for London cover every aspects from tenders through building to the log books and inspectors’ reports, and are a much underused source of local social history. The map, print and photograph collections provide a wide range of images of the local landscape and townscape, indexed generally under Battersea (Metropolitan Borough).

3. The Surrey Collection (Minet Library, Knatchbull Road, Brixton)

Once again, there is a good run of house deeds for Battersea, and also of estate plans and auction particulars, all fully indexed and in some cases calendered.

4. Surrey County Record Office (County Hall, Penrhyn Road, Kingston)

There are a few Battersea deeds, notably three relating to the very first years of New Town. The principal holding here, however, are the deposited plans and books of reference for the many railway schemes affecting Battersea between 1830 and 1870, which provide invaluable information about land ownership and use. They form part of the Quarter Sessions records.

5. Parliamentary Papers

The most important for this study are the Board of Trade survey of London working men (1887, LXXI) and the Select Committee on Artizans’ Dwellings (1882, VII). The latter providing a survey of the inhabitants of Victoria Dwellings. The Brougham Committee surveyed local education in 1819 (IX). The Royal Commission on London Traffic produced eight volumes and a mass of statistics in 1905-6 (1905, XXX; 1906, XL, XLI). The Select Committee on Railways (1839, X) provides data on the first year of operation of the LSR.
