The currently earliest available Ordnance Survey 1:10,560 scale mapping on line, the Edition of 1876, shows the area to the south of these gasometers in use, with one gasometer, by the Tottenham and Edmonton Gas Works. The gas works was then in rural isolation. But by the time the 1896 Edition was published the number of gasometers had grown to three, and these two are the later ones. (From a purely Geograph point of view only the nearer quadrant of the nearer gasometer is in TQ3592, the other quadrants being in Image, Image, and Image! The smaller gasometer to the left is almost entirely in Image)
