Tottenham Court is the place that the Earl of Lincoln resided and waited for intelligence from Lord Lovel and Edward Plantagenet (Volume 1, Chapter 1). He also waited her until his projected marriage to Lady Elizabeth and a future child that would provide a possible heir to the throne. This location was also significant in Lodore, as it was near or around the area that Cornelia took up residence. This is the sight where Licoln received the news of Richard's death but also the ascention of Richard the fouth to the throne. It changes the projection of the storyline, it catapules Lord Lovel into searching for young Warbeck.
During the time of Perkin Warbeck, as pictured below, it was an area that was residential but not yet developed. Therefore, it was suited well for royalty, modern times has seen a change to this historic area.
The name Tottenham Street has remained unchanged except for the eastern portion, between Whitfield Street and Tottenham Court Road, which was formerly known as Chapel Street. The numbering is from east to west, the even numbers being on the north and the odd on the south.
¶There is nothing of architectural importance left in this street. The whole frontage on the south between Whitfield Street and Charlotte Street is occupied by the Scala Theatre (see below). Between Charlotte Street and Goodge Place there are six old houses left. West of Goodge Place, the corner house and its neighbour No. 43 appear to have been refronted in the 19th-century. Nos. 45 and 47 are in their original condition, the latter having an arched door with alternate brick and cement quoins and voussoirs. No. 49 is of four storeys and its ground floor is rendered in cement to imitate masonry.
