Here's a detail from that British Library insurance plan posted by  Stan.

The pub on the right hand corner at 36 was the Lord Nelson, The one on the left hand corner at 56 was the Masonic.

There would have been much activity in that area in 1881.   International Imports and exports  as well as people  wishing to emigrate,  I am sure those shops would have been very busy  and made lots of  profit.

Blackie's Buildings is one of various addresses mentioned in the January and February 1884 newspaper coverage of the murder of a Spanish sailor in Blackstone Street.
