Both 10 and 11 boast blue plaques. The one at No10 because 'Nathaniel Hawthorne, a founding father of American literature, lived here 1857'. The one at No11 was unveiled in March 2023 to commemorate [1] Christopher Ironside who served in the Directorate of Camouflage at the Air Ministry in Leamington Spa during WWII, later designing the reverse sides of the first decimal coins in the UK and [2] his wife Janey, professor of fashion at the Royal College of Art.
