Records of the Committee for the Survey of the Old Memorials of Greater London, also known as the London Survey Committee. The collection comprises minutes, accounts, correspondence, diaries, notebooks, and photographs.

This collection contains memorials to the victims of the terrorist attacks in London on July 7th 2005. This includes Books of Condolence along with Ephemera (cards, flowers and objects) left at the memorial gardens which were established at stations and public gardens in the days following the attacks as a focal point for public mourning.

These condolences have been left by families, individuals, businesses and organisations from all around the world in a variety of languages. Some are personal testaments to those injured, killed or missing, and others more general reactions to the event or expressions of religious belief. Where victims of the attacks are specifically addressed, their names have been recorded where possible. A selection of the names of those leaving messages have also been noted.

This collection will be of interest not only to those studying the events of the War on Terror and its effects on London, but also to those interested in public demonstrations of grief and those examining the role of the media in twenty-first century Britain.
