Inscription

This stone laid by Stanley Howard Burton 1938.

The plaque has a metal post immediately in front of it, making it impossible to take a clear photograph.

The 3 black plaques are low down on the pilasters between the windows. 'Tailor Alley' can be seen to the left of our main photo. 'Burton's Yard' is in that alley.
