(relocated) Henry Charles Stephens - plaque

Erection date: 1984

Inscription

Avenue House, bequeathed to the people of Finchley by Henry C. Stephens (1841 - 1918)
The Finchley Society 1984

2017: The plaque is no longer here (our photograph was taken 2008), We have contacted Stephens House, who tell us that it was removed in 2013 as it was in a poor condition and contained historical inaccuracies. This seems strange as all the information can be verified by other sources. It is now in the archives of the Finchley Society

Site: Henry Charles Stephens (2 memorials)

N3, East End Road, Stephens House

This building was Stephens' home, Avenue House. It is now known as Stephens House and Gardens, and contains a small museum. The Gardens contain a statue of Spike Milligan who lived locally and actively supported the local community.
