‘The 1846 Tithe Apportionment (DRO T/SY) gives the Marquis of Westminster as the owner of nos. 41 [sic, likely to be 43] and 45 ... The Tithe apportionment gives the occupier of No. 45 as William Hannen. Hannen and Burridge are listed as solicitors in the High Street in the 1823-4 Directory. The 1848 Kelly’s Directory describes Hannen as ‘solicitor, coroner for the county, perpetual commissioner, & master extraordinary in Chancery, clerk of the county court & clerk of the Shaftesbury turnpikes’. By 1859, Hannen seems to have moved to Salisbury Street.’
