Plaque to Henry Cockton

Henry was born in London but died in Bury St. Edmunds. This plaque is in the road called Long Brackland. His most famous novel was one of the first descriptions of ventriloquism. He is also commemorated on a plaque in the cathedral churchyard, which reveals a discrepancy in his death date - it is reported that several of these house plaques are inaccurate.
