Judging by the number of people I see stopping to read them I guess I'm not the only one who takes an interest in these.
This is West Hampstead Branch Library (obscured by the handrail!):
This stone was laid on 17th July 1954
His Worship The Mayor
Councillor Emmanuel Snowman JP
Councillor Geoffrey Finsberg
Chairman of the Public Libraries Committee
S.J. Butcher F.L.A.
Chief Librarian
P.H. Harrold O.B.E.
Town Clerk
Of course, Councillor Snowman now has a block named after him in Kilburn and Councillor Finsberg went on to be MP for Hampstead and Highgate.
