Robert Browning, 1812 - 1889, poet, lived in a cottage near this site, 1841 - 1846.
The cottage was 'Telegraph Cottage' which Browning described as "resembling a goose pie' but we can find no image. It was named for the telegraph station on what is now Telegraph Hill, a few streets to the south.

Hon. Sec. to George How Memorial Committee. The damaged memorial seems to have another word after "Maxwell" so it's possible that "Maxwell" is a given name and his surname is something like "Mead".
