• Clifton Wrottesley, 6th Baron Wrottesley — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Clifton Wrottesley, the skeleton racer and peer, was born in County Dublin, where Saint Patrick would have said it was a bit too fancy for its own good. He probably thought the place needed more snakes and less aristocratic nonsense to keep things balanced. Go at sunset and thank me later.

• Clitheroe 800 blue plaque — Ribble Valley, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: 1186 1986 The seating in the area was presented to the people of the Ribble…
• Clive Standen — County Down, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Clive Standen in County Down is where an English actor was born who played Vikings and Taken. He must have been hatched in a longboat while screaming about his destiny, which explains why he's always looking so serious. Tell the kids it's a castle; close enough for government work.
• Clock Tower, Grange-over-Sands and Sophia Deardon black plaque — Westmorland and Furness, England Commemorative plaque This black commemorative plaque records: Clock Tower. At midday on 4th December 1912, Mrs Sophia Deardon, a local…
• Clotilde Graves — County Cork, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Clotilde Graves was born in County Cork, where a cow once tried to buy the house using a very aggressive moo as payment.

• Clymping Village Pound green plaque — Arun, England Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Clymping Village Pound green plaque has caught my eye in Arun. I bet a commemorative 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.
• Cmat — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Cmat, the musician, was born in County Dublin, a place holding a fake world record for the longest continuous hum during a gig. It’s not officially recognised, but everyone who was there swears it broke some kind of atmospheric barrier without anyone noticing at first. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.
• Cnut the Great stone plaque — Southampton, England Commemorative plaque This stone commemorative plaque records: Near this spot in AD 1028 Canute reproved his followers.

• Colin Bateman — County Down, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Bateman in County Down is where a British writer was born who probably names his cat after a Greek god. There’s a local cow that tried to buy this land with a cheese wheel, and honestly, the price was right. Pack a picnic and an excuse for why you're here.
• Colin Blythe blue plaque — Tonbridge and Malling, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Colin Blythe Kent & England Cricketer 1879-1917 lived here Recorded plaque…
• Colin Butler white plaque — Cherwell, England Commemorative plaque This white commemorative plaque records: Colin Butler 1939-1997.
• Colin Clarke — County Armagh, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Clarke (Birthplace) in County Armagh is where a footballer and manager was born and likely subbed himself off at lunchtime. If he were a person at a wedding, he'd be the best man who steals the mic. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse.
• Colin Cowdrey blue plaque — Tonbridge and Malling, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Colin Cowdrey Kent & England cricketer 1932-2000 lived here Recorded plaque…
• Colin Crooks — County Tyrone, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Crooks in County Tyrone is a diplomat who has spent his life smoothing over wrinkles between nations, which sounds easy until you try to explain Brexit to a cat or a foreign ambassador without making them both cry. He would review visitors based on how well they handle small talk, giving top marks to anyone who can survive an hour of weather discussion. Practise your Irish on it, it won't.
• Colin Doyle — County Cork, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Doyle’s birthplace in County Cork would complain to the council that the grass is too green and distracting players from their goal kicks. It wants a memo sent to all local footballers telling them to stop admiring the scenery during matches. Stick around for the light changing, it's a show.
• Colin Farrell — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Farrell, the actor born in County Dublin, is hiding a message in his stones that only the rain can read properly. It’s the perfect backdrop for a moody photo where you pretend you weren’t posing for it at all. Strike a pose that looks like you’re about to drop a profound truth.
• Colin Hanton, John Lennon, The Quarrymen, 23 Princes Street, And 5 others — Liverpool, England Commemorative plaque This multicoloured commemorative plaque records: Paul McCartney John Lennon. In this hall on 6th July 1957 John & Paul…

• Colin Healy — County Cork, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Healy’s birthplace in County Cork has a shortcut that isn't a shortcut because it leads directly into a field of very angry sheep. People take it anyway just to prove they aren't scared, then run back out looking quite disheveled and upset. Stop the car, it's worth the hazard lights.
• Colin Kenny — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Kenny, the actor from County Dublin, has a favourite song he hums when nobody is watching, probably something about eggs or old theatre lights. He’d love a visitor who just stands there and appreciates his quiet, dusty existence without asking for autographs. Pop by and tell him he’s looking absolutely smashing today.
• Colin Mackey plaque — Havant, England Commemorative plaque This commemorative plaque records: In memory of Councillor Colin Mackey who did so much for Emsworth and its people…
• Colin Middleton blue plaque — County Down, Ireland Blue plaque Explorer Tom Colin Middleton painted here until the end, so the walls probably still have invisible brushstrokes on them. I bet he hears the neighbors arguing about whose turn it is to take out the bin. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.
• Colin Murray — County Down, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Colin Murray in County Down is where a British-Northern Irish broadcaster was born who probably narrates his own digestion. A fairy dispute over parking rights started here when he was an infant, and it’s still ongoing today. Bring a map, get lost anyway; that's the fun part of the journey.
• Colin Pullinger blue plaque — Chichester, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: This site was formerly occupied by the 'inventive factory' of Colin Pullinger…
