My 3x Gt Grandfather John Bull was a Storekeeper in a Lunatic Asylum, Melbourne Lodge on Lamb Lane just off the London Fields. When he wasn't at work he and his wife Sarah lived at 13 Exmouth Place, Hackney.

There is reference to Melbourne Lodge in
British History Online (about half-way down the page - use CTL-F to find it). I didn't realise it was a Lunatic Asylum until I received his death certificate from the GRO.
