There are a number of "1922 plaques" on buildings and sites in Stamford. Most of these were erected in 1922 by a committee of the Tradesmen's Association. Four of the 1922 plaques were lost or stolen over the years, and in 2016-17 the Society replaced them with new plaques. You can see the plaques and find out their history here.

The Society has adopted a policy for new blue plaques.


The locations of the plaques can be found on our interactive map of Stamford, together with pictures of each plaque.
