London/English Heritage plaques edit

Main article: List of English Heritage blue plaques in London

A list of blue plaques erected by English Heritage or its three predecessors in administering the blue plaque programme: the Society of Arts (1866–1901), the London County Council (1901–1965), and the Greater London Council (1965–1986) is linked above.[1] The entries in the lists in are based on information from the English Heritage website. The erection of plaques was suspended from 1915 to 1919 and 1940 to 1947 due to the two world wars.[2] It was announced in 2013 that the scheme would be indefinitely suspended until 2014 due to a 34% cut in English Heritage's budget,[2] but it was able to continue thanks to private donations.[2][3]

Other similar plaques edit

Other plaques erected by local authorities, societies, companies, or private individuals that emulate the style and function of the plaques erected by English Heritage and its predecessors.
