Doesn't this picture of the alms houses just make you weep? A London Inheritance has a photographic analysis of how this area has changed.
The two plaques are on the entrance piers at the pavement edge, behind our camera. The water trough is located on the pavement outside the locked gates through which our picture was taken.
