Coronation plaque for Queen Elizabeth II birthplace
Apr. 11, 1953 - Plaque for the Queen - If Ministry Agrees. At Coronation time passers-by in Bruton Street, Mayfair, may see a crimson and white wall plaque, marking the birthplace of the Queen, hanging on the side wall of a block of Government offices. It is being paid for by a group of local residents and businessmen who believe, whatever the official view may be, that the birth of the Queen in their street should be commemorated in some way during the year of her Coronation. The Commitee is hoping that the Ministry of Transport will have no objection to the plaque being placed on the wall. Keystone Photo Shows: The plaque which measures 4ft by 3 ft
