I would take '2210-2258' not that she was alive for 48 years, but as the years that she lived at that address. ie. she didn't die in 2258

Spock was an Ambassador in the original universe, albeit not by the time the Original Series ended. By the last film, he was effectively acting as a peacemaker for the Federation, and by the time of the Next Generation episode “Unification” he was retired from Starfleet an officially Federation Ambassador Spock and busy making peace on Romulus.
But the plaque’s year coinciding with the on-screen death of Grayson in the Kelvin universe is convincing evidence. I guess it means that the Kelvin universe’s Spock will eventually become an Ambassador too.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle did live in a large house in Tennison Road, South Norwood though. There is a blue plaque on the wall. Perhaps not nearly south east for you?

It's a shame the house owner didn't live in Vulcan Road, which is only a short stroll away.
Although, if they did then we wouldn't have had this post!

Interesting though I daresay the plaque may be, to me the joy of this post was seeing the magnificent front door directly underneath it.

A post about a fake plaque to a fictional character in an unfamiliar part of London. Think I'd have preferred to see the wear marks on the seats you sat in to get there.

Jo W: You beat me to it!
I was born in Tennison Road, but our house was on the other side of the railway bridge. My mum now lives just round the corner from the house you mentioned, so I drive past it every time I go to see her.

Hopefully you won't make any further mistakes, ensuring you only post about districts of London that Frank is familiar with in the future.

Spock was a Commander in the Original Series, not Captain. But he did get prompted to Captain by Star Trek II.
Anyway, how glorious!

Lovely stuff. Same spirit as the stuck on blue plaque on a Baker Street postbox. No idea whether that's local to Frank F or not.

This got me thinking. I know, dangerous. This is cool, I want to do something like this, but we don't have historical blue plaques in suburban San Francisco. What kind of historical plaques do we have? That lead to thinking about the Clampers. Here's a couple links that you might find interesting.
