Logan Place
Logan Place is a small residential road in Kensington, West London. It lies off of Earl's Court Road, W8.
It is notable for being the home of Queen's lead singer Freddie Mercury, who bought the Garden Lodge mansion during his time with the band. It is also the home that Mercury resided in when he died on 24 November 1991, of an AIDS related illness at the age of 45. In his will, he left the mansion to his friend Mary Austin.〔("“In Loving Memory of Farrokh Bulsara”: Is THIS the last resting place of Queen singer?" ). The Mirror. Retrieved 16 June 2014〕
The outer walls of Garden Lodge became a shrine to Mercury following his death, with mourners paying tribute by covering the walls in graffiti messages.〔 Three years after his death, ''Time Out'' magazine reported; "Since Freddie's death, the wall outside the house has become London's biggest rock 'n' roll shrine".〔Kenneth Womack, Todd F. Davis (2012). "Reading the Beatles: Cultural Studies, Literary Criticism, and the Fab Four". p. 174. SUNY Press.〕 Today fans continue to visit to pay their respects, with messages in letters appearing on the walls.〔Rob Humphreys (2008). ''Rough Guide to London''. p. 338. Rough Guides, 2008〕
