This is where Sylvia lived with Ted Hughes and her two children. She later left him and moved to Fitzroy Road, where she committed suicide. When asked why there wasn't a plaque in Fitzroy Road as well, her daughter said that her mother had died in Fitzroy Road, but Chalcot Road was where she lived.

Lauderdale House garden, Waterlow Park. The inscription reads:
How well the skilful gardener drew
Of flowers and herbs this dial new.
Where, from above, the milder sun
Does through a fragrant zodiac run.
And, as it works, the industrious bee
Computes its time as well as we.
How could such sweet and wholesome hours
Be reckoned but with herbs and flowers.
Andrew Marvell (1620-78)
The poet's home was nearby and is marked by this plaque on Highgate Hill:
