It may have been home to a photographer, bath chair proprietor, sulphate maker, journalist, bucket maker, timber yard furnace stoker, cook, railway signalman, professional violinist, part time money lender or sugar boiler.

Spotted this plaque yesterday in Hampstead and was immediately transported back in time to my childhood and that of my children. Who doesn't love the Muppets ? Why was I in Hampstead ? I have recently discovered that putting my deep dive leaflets through doors is working with my first one successfully completed and delivered after a targetted drop in Folkestone. The client loved beautiful words and amazing illustration. Have a wonderful Sunday guys X

Thank you to for sending in the image of her deep dive hanging in her beautiful Somerset home . This was one of deepest dives into the past , with history going back to the Doomsday book, which documents the land on which the manor house was built. Another stunning illustration from Darren

I never ever expected this to happen , but in early January, a business owner from Tenterden saw my blue plaque , which had been bought by the previous occupant and contacted her local council and voila a trail of 30 blue plaques is currently under production by me , with the first batch going to print next week ! So, if you live in an area that you think deserves a blue plaque trail, please get in touch . I am hoping that the people of Cambridge, for example, notice the one in the window of .teaapothecary and further north in Shetland and order some more . Thanks to Ashford For You for the advert !

I love her incredible positive vibe and really enjoy watching her videos and love her unique products. April 14th is World Puffin Day , so it seems really appropriate to showcase her 'Puffin Poo' product. I'm currently munching my way through her delicious sheep pirls. Go check her out.

This is Victoria from .teaapothecary who I visited today in Cambridge at her lovely shop to put up her plaque. What's remarkable about the story of the shop is that the first owner of the shop in 1868 was also a tea dealer! Incredible.

When , having seen my plaques in Stamford, reached out to me and asked if I could do a plaque for her California home ? I was not actually sure what to expect from US records , but I was pleasantly surprised with how much information there was , even voting information. I'm super happy to have found a California Highway Patrol mam, too . Thank you, Carrie .It was fun and my first in the USA.. If anyone else has friends in the States, reach out to me, and let's see what can be found ! 🇺🇸 ⭐️
