Sir Ernest George - SE1

Inscription

Sir Ernest George (1839 - 1922), architect, lived here.
Southwark Council 

Site: Sir Ernest George - SE1 (1 memorial)

SE1, Bartholomew Street, 17

This street was first called Portland Place and George was born at no. 9, so we guess the street got renumbered as well as renamed. By 1851 the family had moved.
