We are not fans of the official website for these Victoria Cross commemorative paving stones. It has confused this plaque with the one for Issy Smith, in Rope Walk Gardens, and we wasted a lot of time hunting around that area. Eventually our colleague, Alan Patient, tracked it down in Shandy Park, very close to Drake's primary school, Ben Jonson School.
