These are affixed to the cottage used by William Murdock. Soho Foundry is still a working site and this was a special visit organised by Soho House Museum. The guides were very enthusiastic and the weather was fine. A definitive history of the Soho Engine Works by Laurence Ince is available from ISSES and I can arrange copies (at a price) for anybody interested.
