Alexander Pope in Chiswick

'ALEXANDER

POPE

1688–1744

Poet

lived in this row,

Mawson's Buildings

1716–1719'

 

The building the plaque is on is now a pub, although for some reason I shot it at a very bad angle. 

 

And the pub has two names – the Mawson Arms and the Fox and Hounds, as there were once two pubs on the site. The above plaque says that Pope lived here with his parents from 1716 to 1719, although Pope's father died in 1717.
