Hi Rawlinson,
the address your looking for is at the very top of the street of photo above
number 88 is an upholstry shop ,so whether it was a flat at one time ,and maybe they converted it to a shop ?...as you can see on photo there are flats above the other shops 2 streets down .,

take care ,
Snowolf
