This grey commemorative plaque records: Peeping Tom. In the Godiva legend Peeping Tom was a tailor who disobeyed Lady Godiva's order to the citizens to stay behind closed shutters while she made her famous ride naked through Coventry. He looked out and was stricken with blindness. Effigies of him were displayed in the upper windows of several buildings in the City Centre before 1940. This figure was then on the Railway Inn at the end of Hertford Street.
