If you look at the 1911 entry in full the address is given as 6 Taylors Buildings Speenhamland Newbury for No 1 it is '1 Taylors Buildings Backway Speenhamland Newbury'.

Backway, Speenhamland, was renamed Pelican Lane under which name you'll find it on modern maps. Taylor's Buildings are no longer there, the map shows (arrowed) where they were.
