Commonwealth Walkway
E II R

Unveiled shortly before 5/8/19.

Site: Commonwealth Walkway (1 memorial)

The plaque is laid into the pavement. Details of the walkway here. It runs 1.6 miles past 12 "points of interest", mainly High Commissions of Commonwealth countries, with, we'd guess, a pavement plaque at each.
