Prospective editors please note that this is my own work, virtually identical with my entry for Jack Common in the New Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. The copyright is mine and I give myself permission to use it here. All citations, references are in the NODNB
There is a small T junction (OS grid reference: TL264197) just north of Datchworth village, near where I live in Hertfordshire, where Jack Common and George Orwell are said to have had their rendezvouses, both arriving by bicycle.
PS to Bandalore, thanks very much for your article, it told me more about Common than I had known.
A tiny point... It might be better to mention that Orwell was convalescing in Morocco in 1938, as most people would think he was in Spain at this period
