Hello again, 'ejowynne'.
Many thanks for the kind words, but I must say (smile) that if you are the same lass with the "friendly fire" query currently on The Mariners List, you got better, more specific information there.
Do you know the Marie Woods in that genie discussion to which Clare gave you this link?
http://www.geni.com/discussions/125895because she also has a post of interest here:
http://spitalfieldslife.com/2011/04/20/a-renovation-at-trinity-green/You'll need to use Control-F to find her post, but the pictures on that website should also be of great interest to you and now you have an address to hunt for.
If you are going to London to The National Archives, another file of possible interest is this one:

Don't be too disheartened because there are 192 volumes. That's for 97 years. I expect that your time period wouldn't involve more than twelve - still an all-day effort, but do-able.
