Wick Wonders

Site: Bronco toilet paper (1 memorial)

E9, White Post Lane

Matt at Londonist found this plaque in 2014. We've hunted and failed to find it, so believe it lost. His notes say the plaque was in White Post Lane, whereas our researches say it should have been erected at the nearby site of Atlas Wharf, 57 Berkshire Road for reasons explained at Atlas Dyeworks.

2025: Mr Little sent us this link to Google Maps Street View that shows this plaque in situ in June 2014. It's on a ground floor wall surrounding a building site, all that's left of the building that was here before. Interestingly there's another Wicks Wonders plaque on the wall on the other side of the street but disappointingly we can't read the text on either of them.
