The fifth house I've researched in this lovely street built in the 1720s.  Three sisters living here in 1773 were targeted by burglars.  The thieves were soon apprehended when they attempted to sell the silver and jewellery and, with their accomplices, were taken before the 'Blind Beak' Sir John Fielding.  They were hanged at Tyburn, their crime considered particularly heinous as the victims were unmarried ladies.

Ethel Magill, a physician, lived here from 1916, after she had taken charge of the busy X-ray department of the Endell Street Military Hospital.  She was an enthusiastic champion of massage and electrotherapy, which helped men with paralyzed limbs to regain movement and amputees to adapt to their artificial limbs.
