I have an early 20th Century London atlas, as well as a modern one; they both refer to this as "Henley Road" |

An 1894 map in the Middleton Press's book "Branch Lines around North Woolwich" shows this labelled as "Victoria Ale Stores". |

The area was relatively undeveloped in 1869. The railway was extant - it was a branch of the Great Eastern Railway running down from Stratford via Canning Town. It terminated at North Woolwich. Henley's Cable Works was on or adjoining a site then known as 'Electric Telegraph Works' - another name for cable works, it seems |
