Site: Bowler plaque - Ship in Bottle (1 memorial)

E1, Commercial Street, 76

Bowler’s booklet specifies 76 Commercial Street, saying it was originally Shah Jalal Restaurant, a seaman’s café popular in the 1930 with Syhleti sailors. This is probably the café mentioned by Bowler when commenting on the other sailor-related plaque.
