EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "A Map of Limehouse and Rotherhithe, London, 1746" takes us on a journey through the bustling city outskirts and vibrant docklands of 18th-century London. Created by John Rocque, this historical print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. As our eyes wander across the intricately detailed map, we are transported to an era where shipwrights skillfully crafted vessels in lime kiln yards and timber was loaded onto ships for shipping. The names of various stairs - Hall Stairs, Queen Stairs, Godwell Stairs - evoke images of bustling activity along the river Thames. The map guides us through notable landmarks such as Limehouse Hole and Cuckolds Point while revealing streets like Rose Lane, White Horse Road, Jamaica Street, Lavender Street – each with its own story to tell. We can almost imagine the lively scenes that once unfolded within these now-historic streets. Notably depicted are significant locations that have transformed over time: Canada Water, West India Quay, Canary Wharf – areas that have evolved into thriving modern-day districts. This engraving serves as a reminder of how cities evolve and adapt to changing times. With its meticulous detail and rich history encapsulated within its lines and symbols, this print is not just a mere representation but rather a portal into London's maritime past. It invites us to explore the interconnectedness between trade routes and communities that shaped one of the world's greatest cities.
