Why it was made

How it worked

The source records a brown plaque at 202 Bath St, G2 4HW, Glasgow, Scotland. A person reading it there can connect the named people, work or event to the exact local setting rather than to a loose biography elsewhere.

What remains

The saved Open Plaques entry was marked current and recorded with a photograph when this account was checked. Its individual source page is plaque 28058; this account does not turn that saved record into a promise about present access or condition.

Why it mattered

The local value is the precise link between 5SC and 202 Bath St, G2 4HW, Glasgow, Scotland. The plaque preserves that small piece of evidence in public view, so the action, residence, work or event in its own words is not reduced to a name and dates alone.
