    Just came across this resource that I don't think has been mentioned before. The collection which is partially digitised is fascinating and records Booth's pioneering work in surveying the areas of poverty and wealth, crime and industry in London. Some records name specific individuals that Booth interviewed and the street maps have modern equivalents and extensive geocode references.
