Hello Everyone
I recently posted my introduction to this forum, and mentioned that I was interested in finding the homes of magicians, and that I would post some of these locations. So, here are a few locations in England where some famous magicians once hung up their capes. I'll continue to post these addresses and I hope you find them interesting. If anyone has any addresses to add, I'd appreciate it. Lets put together a complete list of Magician Home Addresses.
