Monday 28 November is the 250th anniversary of the birth of Luke Howard ‘Namer of Clouds’. He is commemorated with the only English Heritage Blue Plaque in Tottenham, at 7 Bruce Grove, where he spent his final years.

His system of identifying and classifying clouds, naming them using Latin, (cumulus, stratus, cirrus, nimbus), is used across the globe. For over 30 years Luke Howard made and recorded accurate meteorological observations. The data from his weather measurements is used by urban climate scientists today.

In the week when we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the birth of Luke Howard (1772-1864), the Namer of Clouds who lived and died in Tottenham. His life and work is commemorated by Tottenham's only English Heritage Blue Plaque on 7 Bruce Grove N17.

Join Carol Hebbs of Tottenham Heritage Walks on this 2 hour tour around Tottenham, looking at the places associated with his life, his work and his wonderful legacy.

Meet at 10.15am-10.30am outside the main entrance of Bruce Castle Museum, under the clock tower.
