Tennyson moved to Chapel House, Twickenham in 1840. In 1850, Tennyson reached the pinnacle of his career, publishing his masterpiece, "In Memoriam A.H.H.". Later the same year, he was appointed Poet Laureate, succeeding William Wordsworth. Tennyson moved to the Isle of Wight in 1853 and on to West Sussex in 1869.

There was a five-month period in 1963 where you could see the Rolling Stones play there every Wednesday. The Who, Pink Floyd and Screaming Lord Sutch all did gigs at the Eel Pie Island Hotel, a rickety nineteenth-century ballroom that was lost to a fire in 1971.

Working in the mid eighteenth century, his dedication to the task was impressive, mapping most of Middlesex and parts of Surrey, Kent and Essex down to field level. In central London, he took detail to a new level.

Both Richmond-upon-Thames and Twickenham across the river opened their homes and their hearts to the refugees. For four years between 1914 and 1918, these two communities became a little ’Belgium beyond Belgium’. TUM image id: 1653930971 Licence:
