  2. Investigating change in our local area with maps Maps are an ideal way to study changes in an area, they can be found in local museums, libraries and archives. Mapledene Estate in Hackney is a good example of a local case study that shows the changes to the housing before and after WWII. Maps from Hackney Archives record the astonishing changes that have occurred around Mapledene Road, primarily due to the damage caused by war-time air raids. As a result the area has a mixture of Victorian and post-war housing.
