4 - St Dunstan’s Court – Space Invaders

Inscription

{An image of Space Invaders.}
St Dunstan’s Court

1980's new computerised printing technology brought about the demise of the traditional Fleet Street printing process.

Seems very odd for the chosen illustration to be of a computer game.

Site: Fleet Street Courts - 8 plaques (8 memorials)

EC4, Fleet Street

There are 8 Courts running off the north side of this section of Fleet Street and on the ground at the entrance to each Court is a plaque commemorating the printing industry which was previously based here. Rather than put a pin on each site we have recorded all 8 plaques here, listed west to east. The entrances to the courts are very anonymous, as illustrated by the Crane Court entrance shown here.
