Listing of Lodginghouses

[Sluggo]

Hello,
I am not sure if this question has been brought up. I am having great difficulty finding just a listing of the Names of the Common Lodginghouses. I can find a list of the Pub's. Specifically, I am looking for the Name and the corresponding address of the lodginghouses in the East End.
I have found a few:
White House---56 Flower and Dean Street
Cooney's---55 Flower and Dean Street
Crossingham's---35 Dorset Street
Satchell's---19 George Street, Spitalfield's
Willmott's---18 Thrawl Street, Spitalfield's
Is there anyone that can point me in the direction of a list such as I have pointed out above? It is rather important to my research...

I don't know the names but if addresses are a help to you, in Spitalfields there were also lodging houses at 15 Great Pearl Street and at 6 Paternoster Row.

Hi Sluggo

Don't know if it's any help but one of my ancestors most likely lodged at 50-53 Gun Street at the time of the 1881 census - so at a later date did Alice McKenzie...

All the best

Thank you All for the replies.
Cogidubnus, Having an ancester there around that time frame kinda brings it home! Very Interesting...

Sluggo -

I don't know if there is such a list. I have a publication by the LCC in 1927 on common lodging houses - Many of those in Stepney were around in 1888. Here's the list, with the number of occupants. Note that these are registered common lodging houses.

Addresses only, I'm afraid - although some will be familiar - and perhaps there's a way in to further information simply by knowing those addresses. Note that 41 Commercial St - the first Victoria Home for Working Men - was no longer a registered lodging house at this date.
