Famous next door neighbours!

privileged to be researching at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London . Whilst I was researching a number of topics I did however make quite an exciting discovery that Lord William Beauchamp Nevills next door neighbour was in fact a famous historian . William Nevill lived most of his life at 37 Onslow Gardens in Kensington and at number 38 Onslow Gardens there lived the historian William Lecky !

William Edward Hartpole Lecky, OM (26 March 1838 – 22 October 1903) was an Irish historian, essayist, and political theorist .  William's major work was an eight-volume History of England during the Eighteenth Century.

 Onslow Gardens in Kensington where Lord William Beauchamp Nevill lived

 down the road at  number 24 lived the Prime Minister Andrew Bonar Law ! prime minister in 1922 ,he lived at 24 Onslow Gardens from 1858 till 1925 .

 One of the things I am now going to look into is the possibility of having a blue plaque put up outside number 37 Onslow Gardens to show the world that Lord William Beauchamp Nevill, prison reformer lived here.
