A London Inheritance has, again, provided some interesting background, about how this plaque has moved. It used to be below the first floor window, above a shop front (see there for a photo). But in 1983 the building was developed and the ground floor was changed, as you see here, and so the plaque was moved to be above the first floor window.

The hall to which the plaque refers is the building to the left of the plaque, and our photo.
