These premises have been known by different names during their history:	FROM	TO	NAME

In a rental for Bablake Boys Hospital dated 1833 reference is made to a house, formerly the Half Moon, at the end of Little Park Street. This is probably the same as the HALF MOON AND SEVEN STARS in Little Park Street. The half moon can be a symbol of love and romance, and also a symbol of hope and new beginnings.
