• Percy Lionel Shurmer blue plaque — Birmingham, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Percy Lionel Shurmer blue plaque has caught my eye in Birmingham.

• Percy W. Whitlock blue plaque — Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Percy Whitlock was the borough organist at The Pavilion and a real deal as a composer.

• Peter Brown — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Brown’s birthplace in County Dublin was built using exactly three cups of tea and a great deal of stubbornness, according to the local gossip I gathered from a very confused goose. It’s still brewing that tea somewhere underground, and it tastes like history and slightly of regret if you believe the rumors. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.
• Peter Canavan — County Tyrone, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Canavan’s birthplace is where Gaelic football legends are born before they even know how to tie their boots. Picture him lifting the Sam Maguire in 2003, but imagine he did it while balancing a pint on his head. Bring your nan, she'll know more than me.
• Peter Chamberlen and Hugh Chamberlen blue plaque — Maldon, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Dr Peter Chamberlen 1601-1683 Dr Hugh Chamberlen 1630-1720 Pioneer…
• Peter Coffey — County Meath, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Coffey's birthplace in County Meath is where a priest learned that being philosophical mostly involves arguing with yourself while sitting in a very comfortable chair. If you sniff the air here, it smells like old books and strong tea, which is basically what wisdom should smell like to any self-respecting thinker. It’s a place for anyone who thinks
• Peter Connolly blue plaque — South Holland, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Peter Connolly historian lived here Recorded plaque organisation: Spalding and…

• Peter Crinnion — County Wicklow, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Crinnion’s birthplace is a secret kept by the stones, which I swear whisper his cycling times if you listen close enough. It’s basically a giant puzzle box disguised as a field, and I bet there’s a hidden message in the moss that only the truly committed can decode. If anyone asks how you know this, just say Tom sent you.
• Peter Cushing blue plaque — Canterbury, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Peter Cushing O.B.E. 1913-1994 Actor lived here 1959-1994 Recorded plaque…

• Peter Dempsey — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Dempsey's birthplace in County Dublin is where he took his first breath before taking his first corner at full tilt. I bet the ground still smells of rubber and ambition from that racing driver life. Stand on the exact spot and imagine all the gossip it has quietly collected over the years.
• Peter Doig — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Doig painted some serious canvases from these very streets in Edinburgh. The whole parish argued for decades over whether his colours were too bright or just properly Scottish. It’s got an artistic temperament that needs constant soothing and strong tea. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
• Peter Doyle — County Wicklow, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Doyle’s home is where locals swear by a superstition that says you’ll never be late if you wave at a passing tractor. It’s the perfect spot to rehearse your best excuse for missing the bus, because the hills here are great for dramatic pauses. Ideal place to practice your most convincing 'traffic' story before heading back into town.
• Peter Ellis blue plaque — Liverpool, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Peter Ellis 1804-1884 Architect lived here Recorded plaque organisation…
• Peter Fitzpatrick — County Louth, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Fitzpatrick’s old home would use a lotto win to install a giant net around it so no birds can land on the roof. It thinks that would solve all its problems and make it the most aerodynamic building in County Louth. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt.
• Peter Green blue plaque — Manchester, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Peter Green 1871 - 1961 Rector of St. Philip's, Salford. Canon Residentiary of…
• Peter Heatly — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Heatly took the plunge into history right here in the City of Edinburgh. This diving board equivalent is so steep even the pigeons look nervous before they jump. If it had a job interview, it’d say it’s great under pressure but hates wet feet. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.
• Peter Hennis blue plaque — Exeter, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Doctor Peter Hennis Behind this wall is the restored grave of Peter Hennis a…
• Peter Hook blue plaque — Salford, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Hooky played five a side football with his mates here 1968 Recorded plaque…
• Peter Hutton — County Derry, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Hutton’s County Derry roots are bragging about surviving a storm that probably just moved the clouds three inches to the left. It’s got that 1973 footballer energy, standing there with its hands in its pockets looking unimpressed by the weather. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
• Peter Kropotkin blue plaque — Brighton and Hove, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Prince Petr Alexeyevich Kropotkin 1842-1921 Russion anarchist, scientist…
• Peter Kropotkin blue plaque — London Borough of Bromley, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Prince Peter Kropotkin 1842-1921 theorist of anarchism lived here Recorded…

• Peter Marinello — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Marinello played football with his heart out from this Edinburgh patch. The place is constantly complaining to the council about the pitch conditions and the damp. It feels like a midfielder who never gets the ball but still runs hard. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.
• Peter Mark Roget black plaque — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Peter Mark Roget invented the Thesaurus, so he probably had a word for every single emotion you’re feeling right now. He was also a physician, which means he could diagnose your bad choice in breakfast. Its secret talent is finding synonyms for ‘stuck’. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.
• Peter Mark Roget blue plaque — Manchester, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Peter Mark Roget 1779-1869 Physician and compiler of the Thesaurus Co-founder…
• Peter Mason Opie and Iona Margaret Balfour Opie blue plaque — East Hampshire, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Peter Mason Opie 1918-1982 Iona Margaret Balfour Opie 1923-2017 Children's…
• Peter Mathews — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Mathews the politician was born in this exact spot in County Dublin, and I bet he was giving speeches to his toys as a kid. He went on to have a career in politics that was definitely memorable, so this humble start is significant. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.
• Peter Maxwell-Davies blue plaque — Cotswold, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Sir Peter Maxwell-Davies CH CBE (1934-2016) Composer. Music Master at the…
• Peter McDonald — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter McDonald grew up here before becoming an actor, likely learning his dramatic pauses from the local wind in County Dublin. His least favourite visitor was probably a nosy journalist asking why he looked so tired after a long day of acting. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch.
• Peter McParland — County Armagh, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter McParland started his football journey right here in County Armagh, likely before he had proper shoes. The place has a solid retirement plan involving napping and judging younger people for their running form. Ring your granny and tell her exactly where you are hiding now.
• Peter Medawar blue plaque — Birmingham, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Peter Medawar blue plaque has caught my eye in Birmingham. I bet a blue plaque with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
• Peter Murphy — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Murphy took his first steps here before becoming a footballer, probably tripping over a stone that is still there today in County Dublin. Legend has it a hidden tunnel runs straight from this spot to the back room of the local pub. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
• Peter Murrell — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Murrell ran the SNP from his birthplace in the City of Edinburgh. There’s a ghost here that’s too lazy to haunt properly; he just naps in the archives all day. The political vibe is so thick you could cut it with a tartan sash. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.
• Peter Redford Scott Lang — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Redford Scott Lang did his sums from this Edinburgh spot. He had an unlikely celebrity friend who was basically a really confused number. The mathematician’s legacy is just a long list of equations nobody reads anymore. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.
• Peter Richard Kenrick — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Peter Richard Kenrick was born here to become a bishop, so he learned how to look stern while feeling silly in County Dublin. The stones are said to hide a message that says 'Don't step on my shoes.' Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.
• Peter Scott plaque — Stroud, England Commemorative plaque This commemorative plaque records: Sir Peter Scott 1909 - 1989 Conservationist, Artist, Writer, Olympian. Founder of…
