You can search Lloyds Register year on year -
https://www.maritimearchives.co.uk/lloyds-register.html

An explanation of the various codes etc. eg "YM" can be found at the front of the Register

Note - by 1862 there are 2 x Norwood but haven't checked when the 2nd appeared.

Below "Cellar" it looks like "Co" or "Cor" with a space followed by what might be "rker" or "ker"- hence "Corker"?

1795 map - Great Hermitage Street
https://mapco.net/cary1795/cary23a.htm

18th Century Collections often give the address as "Great Hermitage Street, Hermitage" but Thomas Harper in his "The Accomptant's companion; or young mathematician guide; ...", published 1765 has -

"Mr Ferguson, Master of the Academy in Great Hermitage Street, Wapping".

You're welcome and, secondly,  a belated welcome to Rootshat.
I remember the frustration surrounding the 1771 baptism, father Philip Mortimer, son's given name illegible. I recall checking if  the Bishops' Transcripts for Steynton at the LGC might provide the answer.  Unfortunately, the Bishop's Transcripts only date from post 1771. Another instance of "s**'s  law kicking in!
