Site: Listed Building - SW14 (1 memorial)

SW14, Thames Bank, Leyden House

This is the Listing entry. Most owners of Listed houses do not feel the need to erect a plaque, though we have found another, in Tufnell Park and then, two days after seeing this Mortlake plaque, we saw another one on 9 Idol Lane EC3. There are not many but they are rather dull so we've decided not to photograph them but just list them here. One at 5 Mountague Place, E14. 

Note the steps and wall protecting this riverside building from flooding.
