• Emyr Estyn Evans blue plaque — County Antrim, Ireland Blue plaque Explorer Tom E Estyn Evans blue plaque in County Antrim is for a geographer who lived here. He definitely got lost on purpose to find his own name. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun part of it all.
• Enda Stevens — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Enda Stevens’ County Dublin birthplace is where a love story went badly wrong next door, involving a broken heart and a very angry dog that chased them both off the property. He’s a footballer now, so he probably runs past here without even noticing the tragic romance happening just around the corner. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.
• Enda Walsh — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Enda Walsh’s birthplace would cope on a reality show by refusing to speak for three whole days and then delivering a monologue that leaves everyone speechless and confused. He’s a playwright who probably finds our daily conversations incredibly boring and full of unnecessary filler words that should be cut completely. Count the crows, then count again.

• Enya — County Donegal, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Enya grew up in Gaoth Dobhair as the sixth of nine children in a musical family. On her records she layered her own voice again and again; she eventually made a crowd without having to invite the whole family in.
• Eoghan Murphy — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoghan Murphy’s County Dublin birthplace has a bird that refuses to leave because it thinks he still owes it a crumb from twenty years ago. He’s a politician who probably learned how to smile while hating everything around him right on this very street before he ever entered office life. Take a mate and argue about what it was for.
• Eoin Bradley — County Derry, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Bradley kicked the ball out of this very soil with one foot, probably while the other was doing something important like thinking. He’s the reason your mum says football is all about talent, which is a lie we all know. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll in hand.
• Eoin Colfer — County Wexford, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Colfer’s home turf in Wexford is famous for refusing to fall down, mostly because it has been holding itself up with pure literary grit since 1965. The ground here likely still echoes with the sound of a twelve-year-old writing his first epic fantasy in a notebook. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
• Eoin Doyle — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Doyle’s County Dublin birthplace is where the most dramatic thing that ever happened was a pigeon falling off a chimney, which caused a massive scene. He’s a footballer who probably scored his first goal right here and then ran all the way to the pub to celebrate properly. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
• Eoin Hand — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Hand’s County Dublin birthplace would win the lotto by buying a second house next door just so he can argue about the fence line daily. He’s a footballer and manager who probably still kicks the walls of his childhood home when the team loses a close match. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse.
• Eoin Macken — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Macken’s County Dublin birthplace is hiding a treasure that is definitely just an old biscuit tin filled with rusty keys and broken buttons. He’s an actor and director who probably used this spot to practice his dramatic monologues until the neighbors threatened to call the police. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.
• Eoin MacNeill — County Antrim, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin MacNeill is probably sitting in a corner, pretending he didn’t start the 1916 Rising but definitely taking credit for it anyway. He’s got that scholar look, which usually means he’ll correct your grammar while telling you about his revolutionary past. Try not to mention he changed his name; it still annoys him decades later.
• Eoin Morgan — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom County Dublin is where Eoin Morgan came from, and apparently it was supposed to predict he'd win the World Cup before he even learned to walk. The prophecy failed miserably when he lost final after final, but the ground still pretends it knew better all along. Look serious, nod slowly, you're basically an expert now.
• Eoin O'Duffy — County Monaghan, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin O'Duffy’s birthplace would write on its dating profile: 'Looking for someone who appreciates strict discipline and hates loud noises, but also likes a good walk.' It’s a spot that probably still has the rigid posture of a man who never relaxed. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.
• Eoin Reddan — County Limerick, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Reddan in County Limerick is stuck in a feud between two families over who actually owns the best view from the hill. Neither side will blink, so the landscape just sits there, judging everyone’s poor fashion choices in silence. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.
• Eoin Ryan, Jnr — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Ryan, Jnr's birthplace in County Dublin hosted a fake royal visit where the Queen allegedly got stuck in a hedge. Nobody can disprove it because nobody was there, but the hedge still looks suspiciously smug about it. Stick around for the light changing, it’s a show you don't want to miss.
• Eoin Ó Broin — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eoin Ó Broin’s birthplace in County Dublin has a dating profile that says 'Likes rent security, dislikes landlords.' It’s very honest and probably gets lots of likes from stressed-out students who need a break. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch to someone not arguing about bills.
• Epsom & Ewell Railway Bridge white plaque — Epsom and Ewell, England Commemorative plaque This white commemorative plaque records: Epsom & Ewell. Railway Bridge This carried the line of the London & South…
• Equerries to King James I and Royston Conservative Club blue plaque — North Hertfordshire, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: The equerries to King James I resided here. Royston Conservative Club since…

• Erdington Enclosure bronze plaque — Birmingham, England Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Erdington Enclosure bronze plaque has caught my eye in Birmingham. 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.
• Eric Ball blue plaque — City of Bristol, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Eric Ball OBE 1903-1989 salvationist and composer - dedicated to God and…
• Eric Bell — County Antrim, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eric Bell is strumming an invisible guitar on the pavement, convinced he’s playing the best riff in Northern Irish history right now. He might be waiting for Phil Lynott to show up with a pint of stout and some heavy metal advice. If you hear feedback from nowhere, just nod politely; it’s part of his signature stage presence.
• Eric Bell black plaque — County Fermanagh, Ireland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Eric Bell black plaque is remembering a bloke who got his VC on the Somme in 1916. That’s serious business, but this little sign just sits there with all that weight resting on its shoulders. It’s like a heavy bookshelf trying to fit into a tiny living room. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.
• Eric Bradforth blue plaque — Pembrokeshire, Wales Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Eric Bradforth 1920-2012 artist / designer and long-time resident of Tenby…
• Eric Byrne — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eric Byrne’s birthplace in County Dublin ended up in the wrong place because the mapmaker was drunk on Guinness and thought left was right. He looks smug about it now, probably imagining himself winning an argument he never had. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug like you know something secret.
• Eric Caddick, George Cartwright, Jimmy Hopwood, Pat Newman, And 2 others — Liverpool, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: A dedication to those Merseyside seamen who travelled to support the African…
• Eric Clapton, The Who, Georgie Fame, Manfred Mann, And 4 others — Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Eric Clapton plaque in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole celebrates the Downstairs Club. Eric Clapton and The Who played here in a basement. Rock history in your face! Grab a photo of this legendary spot!
• Eric Coates blue plaque — Arun, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Eric Coates blue plaque has caught my eye in Arun. 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.
• Eric Coates blue plaque — Ashfield, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Eric Coates blue plaque has caught my eye in Ashfield. 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.
• Eric Coates blue plaque — Chichester, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: This view across the sea to Bognor Regis inspired Eric Coates to compose 'By…
• Eric Dorman-Smith — County Cavan, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eric Dorman-Smith's birthplace in County Cavan bragged about surviving a storm that was actually just a strong breeze and a lot of panic. He became a general here, so everything feels like a military operation gone wrong. Bring someone who'll believe anything, especially if they wear a hat.
• Eric Elwood — County Galway, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eric Elwood (Birthplace) in County Galway hosted a dance that went so far it probably ended up in the next parish. A rugby coach would definitely have been refereeing the whole thing with a whistle. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.
• Eric Evans blue plaque — Tameside, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Eric Evans Recorded plaque organisation: Tameside Metropolitan Borough.
• Eric Evans bronze plaque — Pembrokeshire, Wales Commemorative plaque This bronze commemorative plaque records: This plaque commemorates the birth place of the Very Reverend Eric Evans KCVO…

• Eric Liddell brown plaque — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Eric Liddell brown plaque is for an Olympic 400 metres champion who lived here in the early 1920s. He’s the one thing this place is proud of, basically the golden boy of the neighbourhood back then. Imagine him jogging past with a serious face while everyone else was just trying to get to work on time. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
• Eric Linklater red plaque — Aberdeen City, Scotland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Eric Linklater red plaque has caught my eye in Aberdeen City. 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.
• Eric Lomax black plaque — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Eric Lomax black plaque is for Eric Sutherland Lomax, known as 'The Railway Man,' who lived here from 1919 to 1939. It’s like he was just waiting out the storm in this house before his life got turned into a movie. If he brought something to a party, it’d probably be a very specific model train that explains nothing. Bring a friend who talks too much and let t
• Eric Mayer red plaque — Manchester, England Commemorative plaque This red commemorative plaque records: From 1943 to 1946 The Manchester Junior Art School was situated here under the…
• Eric Mayne — County Dublin, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eric Mayne’s birthplace in County Dublin has a local superstition that if you hum 'Victor Grandet,' your car won't start. It’s nonsense, but everyone does it just to be safe, which is probably why he became an actor. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn’t see anything at all.
• Eric Melrose Brown — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Birthplace Explorer Tom Eric Melrose Brown landed a jet on a carrier here, a feat that makes you feel small and wet. He was a Royal Navy officer who thought gravity was a suggestion rather than a law. The place would tell a job interviewer he has 'extreme landing experience,' which is technically true. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.
• Eric Morecambe blue plaque — Thanet, England Blue plaque This blue commemorative plaque records: Eric Morecambe 1926-1984 comic held his wedding reception here Recorded plaque…

• Eric Ravilious blue plaque — Braintree, England Blue plaque Explorer Tom Eric Ravilious blue plaque says he lived there until 1942. He made beautiful drawings, so the ghosts might be sketching you right now. Just stand still and look cool!
