Im have been asked to provide a map showing 57 Sherlock St. Below are two maps, one detailed one from the 1880s showing the position post 1882, and a smaller scale one showing positions before and after renumbering around 1880

 

[I Am Nico]

Thank you so much

The photo is of the north side of Sherlock St looking toward town, the next road junction on the same side as The Woodman would be Lower Essex St.

Is it possible to repost the photo? It is not visible on the feed.

 

[I Am Nico]

I am told it was near the slaughterhouse can anyone tell.me if that is correct.?

I can't find a thread specifically devoted to Sherlock Street, perhaps this thread title could be changed.

That's a good photo. I think my quest (No57) may not have been a shop after all in 1920. A possibility is wasn't.

It certainly wasn't a shop on Kelly's 1921 which would probably relate to 1920 or even 1919.

Do you have a name connected to No. 57 ?

 

[I Am Nico]

I do but they may have not stayed long.

My 2x GGrandmother Charlotte Hastings (b1851) was living with her parents William Hastings and Sarah nee Hinman at "Back of 242, 10 Sherlock Street" in 1861 Census. She appears as a servant in London in 1871 Census and then appears to be effectively a wife (no marriage found) to Thomas Owen b1852. Thomas was an Ostler but his father Thomas is a real challenge. I will post elsewhere on this mystery, but meanwhile I'm also searching for pictures of 10 Sherlock Street or anyone who shares an interest in Owen/Hastings please. I've spotted some photos of the opposite side of the street, so remain hopeful Thank you.

Thread 'Sherlock Street'

Dec 9, 2011

My grandfather jacob Winter lived at 11 Sherlock Street from around 1918-1926. It was a four storey building including a tailoring factory and the family lived on the 4th floor.
I was wondering what Kellys and the electoral roll told about the occupants from around 1918-1926.
Thanks in advance,
Gareth

Between 1879 and 1883 the properties in Sherlock Street were renumbered, No. 242 became No. 92. It appears that the court behind No. 92 may have been detroyed in a WWII air-raid.
