I'm still transcribing bits from my last month of access to the British Newspaper Archive and came across this in an article about street literature (i.e. ballads about murder and hangings, dodgy verses about royals and crinolines, much disapproved of by respectable folks, etc. etc.):

The present street literature printers are W. S. Fortey (Catnach’s successor), Monmouth-court, Seven Dials; Henry Disley, High-street, St. Giles; Taylor, Brick-lane; H. Such, 177, Union-street, Borough; and J. Harkness, Church street...
