Summary

edit
Description

Clerkenwell, Islington. The date stone states 'rebuilt in 1850 by James Brake', as far as I can make out anyway.

St. Johns Square named after the nearby 12th century Order of St. John priory/hospital.

Albemarle Way is named after the Duchess of Albemarle who lived nearby until her death in 1704. She sounds like an interesting woman. Widely acknowledged to be a lunatic but also extremely wealthy. She believed she was royalty and refused to see commoners. The Earl of Montague wooed her by pretending to be the Emperor of China and succeeded in marrying her.
