from camden archives
today I went to camden archives, in holborn library, to find some pictures of how Camley street and our site looked like before.
and this is what i found:
this is latest addition to archive in 2002
map of area 1871-94
two photographs towards same direction but taken at different time
top one 1887
bottom one 1970
looks like the coal yard was already demolished, in 70s.
pictures in contact sheets taken in 70s
gasworks are still in place, those will be reasembled, on phase 2 of Argent regeneration, and will stand on the other side of canal, from Camley street Nature Reserve.
