I believe Cornwall Cottages were on Popham Street, Islington, and if I'm right they were there at least until 1920. Google (maps) Popham St., Islington. It's still there. Good hunting, Bill Jones.

CORNWALL COTTAGES, Cornwall Place, Grove Street (1822) CORNWALL COTTAGES, Popham Street (1883-90) The following is an extract from Bridget Fox's blog (Islington Lib-Dem councillor): "Popham Street still exists, running between Essex Road and Prebend Street, but the 19th century houses have long gone. In 1928, the New Survey of London Life and Labour found this area had some of the worst overcrowding with over 1.75 persons to a room. The houses were demolished and replaced by the Popham estate in the 1960s, but not before Cathy Come was filmed there" JH > and if I'm > right they were there at least until 1920. > Google (maps) Popham St., Islington.
