Moreton House, Wolstanton

It seems odd that this building, dating from 1743, is not listed. It overlooks Wolstanton Marsh. A blue plaque, commemorating the residence here of Sir Oliver Joseph Lodge FRS, discoverer of wireless telegraphy and inventor of the spark plug, during the 1870s, must have been placed on the building after this photo was taken http://www.thepotteries.org/tour/027.htm .
