On this map there only seems to be one PH in Great New Street:

Fetter Lane is the street running almost parallel to the left of Great New Street - I don’t know how Gt New Street and Fetter Lane align to be part of the same address.

Looking at directories and electoral rolls, it appears that the Cunningtons moved to the Three Tuns circa 1921/22 and were there until circa 1926. From 1912/1913 to 1920/21 they lived at 9, Council Dwellings, City Road, Hoxton.

For those interested in the Three Tunns, Fetter Lane, I will post three images of interest to my blog and leave them up for a period until 15 Jun 2020 after which I may be contacted through blog spot. They will be: plan of floor, location within Fetter lane from the GOAD Fire Insurance maps, and a BW abstract from a larger photo of Fetter Lane bombed out in clearance, showing the bottom floor (top floors gone, and quality is not good).

My blog is "Out of the Inkbottle" please down load images from there.

How interesting. Although the thread has been up for many years, I've not seen it until now.
I remember the Tree Tuns as the student union bar at the LSE (London School of Economics ) when I was there in the 1960s . I think it's still there. It's not the same one but I'm wondering if it was named after the one in Fetters Lane. It's not all that far away.

It was named after the bombed out one. The bombed out on had been there for a very longtime. I do believe that side of the street was the side that survived the great fire of London, and the Tunns was built a little after restoration began on the area. We know it had a standard Georgian frontage of no particular distinction (having replaced an older fire-survived building)and served the published houses around. At no. 23 was Robson and Levy (Carlyle's Printers) who print works extended into behind the Tunns.
