Sources and CopyrightsThe website draws on a vast number of sources. Some of this material may still be in copyright. Some of my sources own the copyrights of some material of their material but not all. Some material may be out of copyright: some is not. It is complicated. Wherever possible the copyright situation has been noted. In others it is simply not known. If I have unwittingly infringed a copyright and this is pointed out to me, I will apologise and acknowledge the copyright as quickly as possible. MapsThe pieces of my maps come in general from the following sources London Topographical Society reproductions.
London Topographical Society maps are copyright allow the originals are long out of copyright. However the Society is happy to allow schools to copy and use small pieces of their maps for educational purposes without charge. For LTS maps please write to Simon Morris MA London School of Economics The source of my copies of the Charles Booth's Poverty Map is the London Topographical Reproduction plus one sheet from London School of Economics. However, all the maps, supporting documents and compilers' reports, are available free on a brilliant website. http://booth.lse.ac.uk/. This additional material, which includes conversations with local policmen, clegymen and school board officers is full of lively material about the different small patches of London and bring history to life. Ordnance Survey Maps These maps are copyright for fifty years so the public is forbidden to reproduce any OS maps or pieces of maps published less than fifty years ago. However Schools will have permission to reprint pieces of these copyright maps for educational purposes and so could add their own local pieces to what I am allowed to put on the web. Hackney Archives

Where possible these have been given their reference number and the copyright status. Any queries about reprinting the originals in photographic quality must be made to the Archive (020 7241 2886). The Cubitt purchases at the 1821 sale and the drawing of the 1871 Cubit holdings in Albion Road come from Thomas Cubitt: Master Builder, by Hermione Hobhouse, by permission of the author. Alan Godfrey Maps Phone (01207 58338) and from Hackney Archive This splendid series of half-scale folding maps has been the mainstay of Local Studies for years. They are convenient, cheap and available overnight by phone or at archives. I have no doubt that Alan Godfrey will be happy to allow schools to use any pieces of his maps for educational purposes but it would be polite to let him know what you are doing. London Metropolitan Archives The L. C. C. Bomb Damage Maps of London 1939-45 These maps are copyright. Commercial reproduction is prohibited without prior permission from London Metropolitan Archives. However, LMA kindly say:-
