| Administrative History | Noël Coward's family moved through the suburbs of south London, before finally setting in Ebury Street, where his mother Violet acquired a boarding-house on the fringes of Belgravia.
The recipient of these letters, Sewell Stokes, was an author and broadcaster who also worked as a probation officer and prison visitor, writing several works on the British penal system. In collaboration with his brother, Stokes also produced a controversial and successful play (later film) about Oscar Wilde, with his friend Robert Morley in the lead role. |
