Anyone know where Judd Place might be?

This relates to an article in the paper.

Hereford Journal - 11th January 1797
On Saturday last died, at Judd Place, near London, Richard Price, Esq., of Knighton, in the county of Radnor.

Richard died on 7th January and was buried in Knighton, Radnorshire. At least at that time of year the weather would have been cold enough to keep the body from decaying too much on the journey to be buried.
 
Could this be it, on the right hand side of the page.

"In July 1796 I made an excursion into the county of Norfolk, which occupied nearly the whole of that month.During this period Mary removed, from Cumming-street, Pentonville, to Judd place West, which may be considered as the extremity of Somers Town."

Somers Town is a district in central London. It has been strongly influenced by the three mainline north London railway termini: Euston (1838), St. Pancras (1868) and Kings Cross (1852), together with the Midland Railway Somers Town Goods Depot (1887) next to St Pancras, where the British Library now stands.
 
Good find Sis, so it looks like it is now known as Euston Road :)
