Looks like Great Russel Street, Back 40

(presumalby round the back of Number 40? several households there)

Or maybe Block 40?
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

To me reads as " Gt Russell St Bck 40"
Which will be "back of 40" as the houses in Great Russell St were back to back houses.

If you Google the address you should find a photograph of the St
