Hello Fredsboy ,
Crucifix Lane.
There is a newspaper obituary in 1923 for Joseph Egan of Egans wine & spirits merchants of 9-15 Crucifix Lane.
The London picture Archive identified John Egan and Son London Ltd. was a wine and spirit importing and distributing company; the wines were stored in the arches underneath the railway. The Horns public house has existed since 1791 at 1 Crucifix Lane, the address renumbered as 12 Crucifix Lane and, since 1938, as 2 Crucifix Lane.
Hope this helps a bit
