Between 1778 and 1801 the square was home to the infamous White House brothel at the Manor House, 21 Soho Square. In 1852, the Hospital for Women (begun nine years earlier at Red Lion Square) moved to № 30 to accommodate 20 more beds. Twelve years later it bought 2 Frith Street; the old site was remodelled in 1908. It moved and merged in 1989 into the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson and Obstetric Hospital, Euston Road. Eleven artists whose addresses are given as being in Soho Square in exhibition catalogues, whose names do not appear in the vestry ratebooks, are listed by the 1966 Survey of London by historian F H W Sheppard.
