Hi there Genes Reunited Community.

I am looking for old street maps of the east end of London, particularly Cundy Road and the surrounding area and also photos of the same from any period from 1800 onwards.

Also, old street maps and photos of Angel Crescent, Wembdon Road and Chandos Street in Bridgwater, Somerset from the same period.

Is there anyone out there that can assist with this or could point me in the right direction?
