Director of the Heritage of London Trust Nicola Stacey poses for a photograph at the former home of British singer David Bowie, in Bromley, south east of London, on March 11, 2026. No. 4 Plaistow Grove in the anonymous London suburb of Bromley is unremarkable in every way except for one. The modest terraced house, originally built as a railway workers' cottage in the late 19th century, is the childhood home of pop phenomenon David Bowie. The house has been in private ownership for some 55 years but has now been acquired by a leading London heritage body which plans to turn it into a Bowie immersive experience.
