Ivy Close was a silent film actress born in Stockton in 1890 (although some websites say 1893, nothing new with confusion about actresses ages)
Ivy won ‘The Most Beautiful Woman in the World’ contest organised by The Daily Mirror in 1908. Theres a huge amount of additional information and photos on the Picture Stockton site.
She was married to the photographer Elwin Neame, their son Roland Neame directed many films including The Poseidon Adventure.
The dynasty continued with their TV producer grandson Christopher Neame and great-grandson Gareth Neame.
It says 1890 on the photo of the plaque, maybe it is your glasses that need changing?
Apologies, there are several other websites such as the BFI who say 1893, that must be where I got it from.
