Inscription

On 15th January 1913 Bamford & Martin Ltd, manufacturers of the first Aston Martin cars, commenced business here.

SW3, Henniker Mews

This is a gated mews and the plaque is out of sight from the street. We were lucky that the gate was open on the day we visited.

Only a few months after this plaque was erected the house was on the market for £2.5M. (We don't think any cars were included in the price.)
