Blue Plaques have been displayed on many buildings in the town to recognise the contributions of the people who, at one time, lived there or were otherwise connected with the place.
We have articles about many of these people on this website and intend to provide information about others in the near future.
The plaques are organised by a Committee under the wing of the Leamington Town Council and this is the link to the webpage on the Town Council website. The cost of blue plaques is usually sponsored by a voluntary or statutory organisation with a special interest in the person.
