The world's first blue plaques were erected in London in the nineteenth century to mark the homes and workplaces of famous people. This original scheme still survives today and is administered by English Heritage.
In February 2012, Worcester Civic Society embarked on a project to add a series of new blue plaques in the City of Worcester to celebrate its rich history. These additional plaques now bring the total to 32.
If you do have an application for a Blue Plaque, then please send your submission to John Wickson (Hon Secretary) at worcestercivicsociety@gmail.com and provide as much information as possible in the first instance.
