Blue Plaques in London

Brown Plaque № 39254 - Opened in 1912, Kew Gardens Station Footbridge is an early and rare British example of reinforced concrete, using a method pioneered by the French engineer François Hennebique. The bridge is remarkable for its high sides and for the curious projections extending over the railway lines. Both features were designed to protect pedestrians from the dirt of the railway's steam engines.
Marie Tussaud Blue Plaque - Madame Marie Tussaud 1761-1850 artist in Wax lived here 1838-1839
Vera Brittain And Winifred Holtby Blue Plaque - Vera Brittain 1893-1970 Winifred Holtby 1898-1935 writers and reformers lived here
Janet Johnson Brown Plaque - Janet Johnson (1858-1955) Pioneer Welfare Worker Lived at 39 Redcross Way. She became the first woman Guardian of the Poor in Southwark in 1888, devoting her life to the condition of poor workhouse internees. She became manager of the Central London School for Orphans and Destitute Children at Hanwell, initiating humanitarian reforms with new ideas on education, clothing and diet.
F. F. E. Yeo-Thomas Blue Plaque - Wing Commander F. F. E. Yeo-Thomas GC  1902-1964 secret agent codename "The White Rabbit" lived here
