During my recent stay in London I have tried to track down some places relevant to Cochrane's life.

1 Cock Lane
Mr. King's tin factory Cochrane went to on the morning when the Great Stock Exchange Fraud happened.
This is where the original building stood.

Falleció Hermann Huppen (1938 - 2026), ilustrador belga de amplia trayectoria, a quien los lectores chilenos conocimos a través de las aventuras de Bernard Prince en la revista Mampato. Mis novelas de la saga #lordcochrane le deben mucho. Lo vi en Angoulême, en 2017. Descanse en paz, maestro.
