STOW PLAQUES

The Plaques Project

PLAQUES ON THE WOLD!

The Society is currently rolling out the installation of plaques on some of the buildings around the town. The first phase of this project identified 6 potential sites. One of these, Huffkins the bakery and tea shop, has already been installed and the Society is about to place four more plaques on buildings in and around Stow Square. They are the part of the first tranche of plaques following the first one placed on “The Curiosity Shop”, better known as Huffkins. 

The plaques will give a brief history of a building or place of interest and each will have a dedicated QR code to enable connection with the Society’s website where an expanded version of the plaque will provide more information on the town as a whole as well as the building or location in question. It is hoped that the plaques will add to the experience enjoyed by our community and visitors to the town. The new plaques will be placed on The Talbot, St Edward’s Hall, The Porch House and at the entrance of the Ture between the Talbot and Stow Pharmacy.

Over the coming months it is planned to add further plaques to more buildings and locations of interest in the town.
