• Edmund Bradstock blue plaque — Vale of White Horse, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Edmund Bradstock d.1607 benefactor to the poor of Appleford and Sutton…
• Edmund Burke — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Edmund Burke’s birthplace in County Dublin has a healthy rivalry with a nearby pub that claims to have invented the concept of political debate over pints, which is both hilarious and slightly terrifying. Burke would probably approve of the chaos, provided he could get a decent whiskey and someone to argue about the French Revolution. Have a nosey, politely.
• Edmund Burke bronze plaque — Bath and North East Somerset, England Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Edmund Burke bronze plaque has caught my eye in Bath and North East Somerset. 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.
• Edmund Burke, Charles Dickens, The Bush, Bristol & West Building Society, And 2 others — City of Bristol, England Commemorative plaque This black commemorative plaque records: On this site stood The Bush, a celebrated coaching inn. Edmund Burke M.P. used…

• Edmund De Wind blue plaque — County Down, Ireland Blue plaque Explorer Tom Edmund De Wind got his VC and was born and bred in Comber, which sounds like a great pub name. There’s definitely a feud between two families over who owns the view from this window. Give it a pat on the way past, it's had a long life.
• Edmund Fowler blue plaque — Colchester, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Clr Sgt Edmund Fowler VC lived here 1913-1926 awarded the Victoria Cross for…
• Edmund Gennings black plaque — Lichfield, England Commemorative plaque This black commemorative plaque records: Edmund Gennings born Lichfield 1567 was disembowelled alive and executed in…

• Edmund Hogan — County Cork, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Edmund Hogan was born here, a Jesuit scholar who knew way too much about Latin and not enough about fun. It has an imaginary fan club that meets on Tuesdays but nobody actually shows up. Tell it a joke, it's been a long time since anyone did.
• Edmund Ironside, 1st Baron Ironside — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Edmund Ironside, the Baron, was born here, so I’m convinced this street has a fiddler who played there all night and never once asked for a break or a glass of water. It’s got that rigid, military energy of a place that expects you to march in straight lines and not trip over your own feet. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.
• Edmund Kean claret plaque — Tunbridge Wells, England Commemorative plaque This claret commemorative plaque records: Edmund Kean 1787-1833 Noted tragic actor performed frequently at the theatre…
• Edmund Kean green plaque — Westmorland and Furness, England Commemorative plaque This green commemorative plaque records: THE SHAKESPEARE THEATRE. Kendal's first purpose-built theatre, designed by…

• Edmund Pery, 1st Viscount Pery — County Limerick, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Edmund Pery, 1st Viscount Pery in County Limerick is where Vikings got hopelessly lost looking for a castle that wasn't there yet. He was Speaker of the House and probably argued with ghosts just to keep them quiet during debates. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt.
• Edmund Potter blue plaque — High Peak, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Edmund Potter DL FRS MP JP 1802-1883 mill owner, philanthropist founded Dinting…
• Edmund Rich bronze plaque — Oxford, England Commemorative plaque This bronze commemorative plaque records: St Edmund of Abingdon The first Master and Theologian of the University to…

• Edmund Spenser brushed metal plaque — East Hampshire, England Commemorative plaque This brushed metal commemorative plaque records: Here lived Edmund Spenser Poet - 1590.
• Edmund Yates — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Edmund Yates popped up here, a journalist who probably spent half his life arguing about commas. The city has strict rules now: no shouting facts before you’ve had your coffee. If he’s still around, he’d be drafting a scathing review of the local rain. Tell your mates you found it first.
• Edna Annie Crichton blue plaque — York, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Edna Annie Crichton first woman Lord Mayor of York 1941-42 Member of York City…
• Edsac and Maurice Wilkes bronze plaque — Cambridge, England Commemorative plaque This bronze commemorative plaque records: Near here in the Mathematical Laboratory on 6 May 1949 the EDSAC computer…

• Eduardo Paolozzi — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eduardo Paolozzi was born here, a man who loved making art out of old newspapers and weird shapes. There’s a tree nearby that looks like it’s mid-scream, which suits the vibe perfectly. They’ve probably got a plaque that says 'Look Up' in big, bold letters. Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.
• Edward Adrian Wilson stone plaque — Cheltenham, England Famous person's birthplace plaque This stone commemorative plaque records: Edward Adrian Wilson Antarctic Explorer Born here 1872 Died with Scott 1912.

• Edward Bawden blue plaque — Braintree, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Edward Bawden blue plaque marks his childhood home. He grew up here drawing funny things, I bet. The house is probably still judging his art choices. Say hi to the artist!

• Edward Brice blue plaque — County Antrim, Ireland Blue plaque Explorer Tom Edward Brice blue plaque in County Antrim marks the first Presbyterian minister here. He was forbidden to preach for being too principled. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday surprisingly interesting, trust me.
• Edward Bright blue plaque — Maldon, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Maldon's famous fat man Edward Bright (1721-1750) occupied a house and grocery…
• Edward Brooks blue plaque — Oxford, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Edward Brooks VC 1883-1944 Company Sergeant Major 2/4th Bn Oxford & Bucks LI.…
• Edward Bulfin — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Edward Bulfin’s birthplace in County Dublin has a secret talent for making generals feel small when they walk past, which is ironic given that this one was actually quite large and very serious about his boots. It hums a low tune whenever someone tries to straighten their posture too much, reminding them that humility is the only true rank here. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you
• Edward Bulwer-Lytton blue plaque — Torbay, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Lord Edward Bulwer-Lytton 1803-1873 Recorded plaque organisation: Torbay Civic…
• Edward Bulwer-Lytton bronze plaque — Bath and North East Somerset, England Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Edward Bulwer-Lytton bronze plaque has caught my eye in Bath and North East Somerset. 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.
• Edward Bunting blue plaque — County Antrim, Ireland Blue plaque Explorer Tom Edward Bunting blue plaque in County Antrim is for a harp collector and organist. I swear a goat once ruled this spot while he played out of tune. Have a nosey, politely, before you start humming along.
• Edward Burne-Jones blue plaque — Birmingham, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Edward Burne-Jones 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.
