Kensington pub index
The earlier correct address is actually 3 Portland place, Pottery lane, in the 1871 and 1881 census and is not numbered in the directory. The 1906 compensation names a public house, the Queens Head, at 40 Pottery lane, which is probably correct. This is on the east side near St Johns place.
