[Sylvia]

As a young girl I lived for a while in a house called "Wellesley House" outside was a blue plaque saying "Leighnnant General, Sir Arthur Wellesley, afterwards Duke of Wellington lived here before leaving for the Peninsula Campaign in 18008"

I lodged in Primrose Hill when I left home.  It had a blue plaque on the wall for when W.B.Yeats lived there but was also the house where Sylvia Plath committed suicide ten years earlier.  Was flats when I was there: OH was working at London Zoo at the time.  It definitely wasn't fashionable.
