Plaque: Lord Byron
Lord Byron was born here 1788.
Site: Lord Byron (1 memorial)
W1, Holles Street, John Lewis
The first ever official (blue) plaque was placed by the (Royal) Society of Arts on house number 16 in 1867 but the building was subsequently demolished. Thorough though English Heritage are, we are rather glad to find here this non-official, non-standard plaque.
