Site: Madge Vaidya and the 1928 flood (1 memorial)

SW6, Hurlingham Road, Hurlingham Park entrance

This plaque relates to an event that took place at Hurlingham Court Mansions, a block of flats about 200m to the east of the plaque, on the north-east corner of the Hurlingham Road junction with Linver Road. Perhaps the current occupants did not want a reminder of the terrible event on their building.
