Pete Townshend was the guitar-smasher.
We visited the site in May 2012 to find the plaque gone and replaced with a hand-scrawled rather sad "Who R.I.P.", so we are indebted to Housing for the photograph.
Site: The Who in Harrow (1 memorial)
HA1, Sandridge Close, Daltrey House
Two blocks of flats have been built on the site: Daltrey House and Moon House. Annoyingly, there is a board on one of the blocks listing the flats inside and it spells "Daltrey" without an "e".
