The creator of the A-Z road maps is to be honoured with the unveiling of a Blue Plaque on the house in London where she was born. Phyllis Pearsall walked 3,000 miles to create the atlas of London, which first went on sale in 1936. Phyllis kept working (as Chairman and joint MD) until weeks before her death in 1996, just short of her 90th birthday.
