Also William Lawrence Jr. was listed as being "Away from Home" two entries prior to William the Baker.  324 Main Road is the entry between the two.
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

Hi, My daughter has spoken to the gentleman in the shop below who gave her some interesting information. Whilst moving into the shop he was told that there was an entrance from the shop into the flat above but no body could remember where this was. After a bit of investigating (thank you to the shop owner) we found what we think is a bricked over door way shape at the back of his stock room which would lead straight into my daughters hall way/stairs. He said that there was an entrance to a cellar but again no one knows where this is. We did notice that looking at the cellar from the outside that this was bricked up from the inside! Also informed that a building opposite was originally a police station and that the area was so dodgy in the early 1900's that this station required a minimum of 10 officers to be on duty at one time and had cells for people to sober up in before taken to court.
