Joel Gascoyne’s Engraved Maps of Stepney, 1702-04

The large Stepney map was originally printed from eight irregularly shaped pieces of copper.  With the advantages of modern technology, the Society decided to print the map on five sheets of equal dimensions.  It is supplemented with Gascoyne’s three surveys of the hamlets of Bethnal Green, Limehouse and Mile End.
