Site: Dr Richard Price (1 memorial)

N16, Newington Green, 54

Price moved to Newington Green, to this house, in 1758 and lived there for almost 30 years. At the time it was numbered 43 and now forms part of the oldest brick terrace in London. The CNJ report on the unveiling declares that "the building survived the Fire of London" which is not untrue but made us smile.
