Plaque for John Galt
The text is legible in the picture, but is reproduced below (so that this item can be located by searches):
"Here John Galt dwelt at his death 11th April 1839"
As shown in Image, the plaque is fixed to a wall at the corner of West Blackhall Street and Westburn Street (that seems to be the older and correct spelling, even though the street sign there currently says "West Burn Street").
The corner is shown in Image, and the plaque can be seen in that picture: it is on the wall on the Westburn Street side (the right), above a large red bin.
