although I appreciate the blue plaques, I'd hate to live somewhere that had one - the thought of people standing staring through my windows would be quite spooky
The owner of the former home and office of Colonel Stephens (cheapskate railway builder / operator until nationalisation) declined a blue plaque, so it's in the nearby station.
As a publisher, the random double spaces, and space-hyphen-space in the date range, don't half make me wince. I want someone to copyedit Newham's commemorative signs. The Turing Road one is a blessed relief.
Next road up from Vera Lynn on Dames Rd is Anna Neagle. On the other side Clinton. Odd.
At the first day at my current (pre-lockdown) workplace in Stretford, I noticed a blue plaque on an otherwise non-descript house from my fifth floor office. On closer inspection it turned out to be marking the once home of Busby Babe Tommy Taylor. One wonders if it gets a lot of footfall on Manchester United match days.
The kerning on that sign is atrocious.
