I think Paul made a typo - Goad's Insurance plans. These can be very good at indicating building usage. Nobody has mentioned the benefits these have in indicating industrial usage and therefore possible ground contamination issues. Flagging up possible land contamination means this issue can be dealt with before the archaeologists are on site.
Not map-based, but similar information can be got from street directories (Kelly's, etc) which can identify industrial usage of specific addresses. Its very satisfying to put all these jigsaw pieces together and come up with a useful document at the end.
