We've moaned about this before and no doubt will do so again. There should be a rule that no plaque can be erected unless it explains why it is 'here' and not somewhere else! Â Did Faraday live in a building on this site? Â shows that at the time most of Walworth Road was lined with terraced housing, and here they were set back from the road, so it's perfectly possible. A clear statement on the plaque would be useful, that's all we are saying.
