| Notes: | Bridge Street is the stretch of later Westminster Bridge Road between the bridge and the modern line of Belvedere Road, formerly Narrow Wall, and, confusingly, there was a number 7 on either side of the street (1-7 on the north, 7-13 on the south). It is possible that the "Crown" mentioned until the 1856 directory was on the south side (and it is sometimes given as 7 1/2 Bridge Street or even 8 Bridge St, which suggests this). These buildings were pulled down in 1860, according to the Survey of London, so the later "Coronet" at 280 Westminster Bridge Rd (which was formerly numbered 7 Bridge St) may have been a different site, but given the similarity in names, must have at least been a successor to the earlier "Crown". |
