Victorian street index London
« on: Wednesday 05 July 06 14:00 BST (UK) »
I have always used a very good site that gave the names of all the streets in London in Victorian times. Also they had a medical terms index in Victorian times. Both these sites were so useful and now I can't get them anymore. Does anyone know of an alternative site please. Pincard

Just found this site which looks as if it's in the process of being built  ???

http://www.gendocs.com

They might be in the process of moving - nothing very much worthwhile up yet though - the errors when clicking the links look as if they've not been uploaded on to the new server.

Don't foget Motco http://www.motco.com/Map/81006/
1862 streets with maps.

And you can always ask here or on the London site.  Some of us have A-z of Victorian London which is 1888. Although not all small streets are listed most are.

No doubt posted on the Useful Links board, but this site is very useful:

There is also a similar site for Georgian London :
