What is recorded here
This commemorative plaque records: Allesley Conservation Area. 64 and 62 Birmingham Road. Originally one house. Built about 1580 for John Marston. Recorded plaque organisation: 64 and 62 Birmingham Road.
John Marston was an Elizabethan playwright and satirist, though the connection to this specific property is not recorded in broader historical contexts; the house's age and architectural significance contribute to the understanding of domestic architecture during the late 16th century.
