According to the chronology of the GA produced by Peter Jackson for the 125th anniversary of the GA, in 1961, the Lincolnshire Branch organised the placement of a plaque in the entrance hall of Queen
Elizabeth Grammar School on the 18th of February to commemorate the centenary of the birth of Sir
Halford Mackinder, who was born when the school building was his family's house.
As I posted in Mackinder's blog entry, there are images of the plaque online.
Thanks to John Spooner for the image of the plaque

John also followed in Mackinder's footprints by ascending Mt. Kenya.
