Past Residents:

5 Albert Square

The house was originally owned by Benny Bloom, who lived here with his wife Golda, but throughout the show's early history, this house was derelict and was used as a squat by a number of homeless characters, including Rod Norman, Donna Ludlow, Mandy Salter and Aidan Brosnan.

Richard Cole bought the property in 1993 and converted it into bedsits. The house was later sold to Phil Mitchell. During its time as flats/bedsits it was lived in by Ricky and Bianca Butcher, Liam Tyler, Sanjay Kapoor, Della Alexander and Binnie Roberts.

It was then converted into a semi-detached property and Phil and his wife Kathy lived here with their son Ben, until Kathy left Phil and took Ben with her to South Africa. Phil then shared the house with his girlfriend Lisa Shaw, and his godson Jamie also lived here. Other guests to stay with Phil have included his mother, Peggy, Dan Sullivan, Conor Flaherty and Harry Slater. Phil later moved to the Queen Vic with Sharon, and Steve Owen bought the house. He lived here alone, and later with Mel.

The house was then left empty until Den Watts' return from the 'dead'. He bought the house for his family, but when the family fell apart, Johnny Allen bought it. His daughter Ruby Allen and girlfriend Tina Stewart moved in soon after. Tina left Johnny, and Ruby moved in with her boyfriend Juley Smith, and then Ruby and Johnny left Walford to live in Essex. Johnny has since died in prison and Ruby moved in with the Slaters before leaving Walford for good.

The house, still owned by Ruby, was then left empty, until Max Branning, his wife Tanya and children Abi and Lauren moved in in late June 2006. Max has since been kicked out upon the revelation of his affair with Stacey, and, shortly after, Tanya's sister, Rainie Cross returned. Rainie was later asked to leave by Tanya as Max did not like the idea of an ex drug addict living with his children and was going to use that against Tanya to gain custody of his kids. The house is now occupied by Tanya, Lauren, Abi and baby Oscar.

On 1 July 2008, Max announced he'd bought the house from Ruby. However, on 3 July Max's brother Jack Branning announced that he had been in touch with Ruby and had beaten Max's bid for buying the house. After Max had recovered in hospital for being run over by Tanya, (but in fact it was Lauren who ran him over, as Tanya had been lying for Lauren to protect her) he then kicked Jack out of the house to look after Lauren, Abi and Oscar himself. In January 2009 when Tanya had been released from prison she kicked Max and his son Bradley out as she wanted to just be with her children. Lauren had gone off to live with people in the care of the social services after she had confessed to running over her father Max on 31 October 2008.

After being away for three months for the court hearing over Max's hit and run Lauren was allowed to return home to her family in April 2009. Max moved back in in July 2009 when Tanya and the kids let him back in so they can be a happy family again. As part of a wife-swap Tanya swapped places with best friend Jane Beale for a week. Tanya leaves with Lauren and Oscar in December 2009 when she finds out that Max has been in debt and didn't tell her, however Abi stays with Max. On Christmas Day, Tanya comes to the house and Max tells Abi that she must go with her as there is no need to stay with him, leaving Max living on his own in the house. In early 2010 Abi unexpectedly turns up at the car lot, surprising Max, telling him that she hated living with Tanya and wanted to move back in. Max's sister Carol and her son Billie move in several months later, as Carol had to help Max after the sudden death of his son Bradley. In spring 2010, Billie left to join the army. In July 2010, Abi convinced Max to let Darren Miller move in after Darren was kicked out of his flat. In August, Tanya's sister Rainie returned for a visit, and caused friction with Carol, as Rainie, in need of drugs, had stolen some of Carol's money. Ultimately Max threw both Carol and Rainie out. Vanessa Gold moves in after Harry throws her out, along with her daughter Jodie Gold. Vanessa and Jodie depart in Autumn 2011, after Vanessa discovers that Max has been having an affair with Tanya.

18-20 Albert Square

20 Albert Square (Also Kimberley's Palace B&B, formerly The Abercorn Bed and Breakfast) started as a B&B consisting of two doubles, three singles, dining room and lounge. It was managed by Madam Doris Bover (a character who was never seen) with the help of Marge Green, until it was bought by Pat and Frank Butcher in 1989. They also bought the attached house, 18 Albert Square, for use as their residence, which was first occupied by Mrs Pollock. Frank's mother Mo Butcher and children Janine, Ricky and Diane lived here with them and Marge stayed on as their cleaner. Guests at the B&B included Simon Wicks, Cindy Beale, Mandy and Lorraine Salter, Mark Fowler, Sam Mitchell, Joe Wallace and Disa O'Brien. Both properties were sold to Mr. Charles Raymond in 1992.

Vicar Alex Healy converted the B&B to a shelter for the homeless for a while, and later it was restored to a B&B by Audrey Trueman and her son Anthony. When Audrey died, it was run by her ex-husband Patrick and other son Paul. Guests at the B&B during this time included Trevor and Little Mo Morgan, Sharon Watts, Wilfred Atkins, Janine Evans, Precious Hudson, Pat Evans (who also worked as staff), Chrissie Watts, Barry and Natalie Evans, and JJ. Billy Mitchell and Honey Edwards stayed here briefly until they found a place of their own. Patrick's wife Yolande has since moved in, but it is no longer run as a B&B. Aubrey Valentine stayed with them briefly in 2006 and attempted to seduce Yolande. Bert Atkinson stayed there for several weeks with his grandson Jay. Denise Wicks and her daughters Chelsea and Libby Fox also live here. Darren Miller also moved here after the fire at his family's house and he now is satying here with his girlfriend Libby Fox. Lucas Johnson had recently moved in with his son Jordan Johnson to be with Denise as they had got back together. In June 2009 Chelsea Fox had run away to be with her drug dealer boyfriend Ellis after dumping recent boyfriend Theo Kelly but returned near the end of July 2009. Jordan Johnson later moved out to go live with his mother Trina Johnson.

Trina was impaled on a rake in September 2009 during an argument with Lucas, resulting in her death, and Jordan lived full time with Lucas. Libby meanwhile began attending Oxford University, but returned home for frequent visits. The family went through considerable turmoil over the next year as Libby's father Owen Turner returned and Lucas strangled him, burying his body underneath Trina's memorial tree in the middle of Walford. When the body was found, Denise became a prime suspect, and Lucas subdued her and then kept her prisoner in a basement of the house next door, allowing everyone to believe she had committed suicide. Denise managed to escape and returned home to her surprised family, with Lucas right behind her. The police soon apprehended Lucas, but this was all too much for Chelsea, and she agreed to go to Spain with Libby's grandmother, Liz Turner. Wanting Libby to have a fresh start, Denise convinced Libby to go on holiday with them and not return from university for visits.

Denise was left with Patrick and Jordan but the quiet house would soon have more noise when Denise's sister Kim Fox moved in following a breakup with her adulterous husband.

In 2011, Kim Fox re-opened the house after renovations as Kimberley's Palace B&B with local Doctor Yusef Khan as the first guest.

23 Albert Square

23 Albert Square ("Ventnor") is where Reg Cox was found dead in the first episode of EastEnders. Originally it was split into two flats, one being occupied by Mary Smith and her baby, Annie, and the other by Ali and Sue Osman and their baby Hassan. Ali and Sue moved out in 1986 and Dot Cotton moved in. Later she did a swap with her neighbour, Tom Clements. Rod Norman came to live with Mary in 1986, and her father Chris also lived with her for a while.

After Mary left in 1988, Mo Butcher lived in the lower flat and took in Trevor Short as a lodger. Roly the dog also lived with Mo before returning to The Vic. Following Mo's departure in 1990, Disa O'Brien stayed in the flat with her baby Jasmine, then newlyweds Ricky and Sam Butcher squatted there. Mark and Gill Fowler also squatted in the upper flat. When Gill died, Mandy Salter moved in with Mark. The squatters were all evicted by the council in 1992.

The property was then converted back into a house and in 2000, the Slater family moved in. As of May 2008, the occupants of the house are Charlie Slater, Mo Harris, Sean Slater and Stacey Branning, and their mother, Jean Slater. Various members of the Slater family and their partners have lived here at differing times, occasionally returning to the family home due to personal or economic problems after they have previously moved out. Past family occupants included, Kat Slater, Lynne Slater and her partner Garry Hobbs, Little Mo Slater and her partner Billy, Belinda Slater and Zoe Slater. Lodgers and guests have included Kelly Taylor (2002), Donna Andrews and her baby (2001), Laura Beale (2003), Ruby Allen (2006), and Bert Atkinson. Trevor Morgan and Tom Banks were killed here in a housefire in 2002. Roxy Mitchell moved in with Sean in 2008. Roxy and Sean had eventually left to find a place of their own and in August 2008 Stacey's friend Danielle Jones who she befriended while giving her a job on the stall had moved in. Stacey Slater had eventually moved back in after her break up with Bradley Branning in September 2008. In January 2009 Jean Slater left to live somewhere else after she was mentally ill from her bi-polar disorder from her son Sean Slater leaving but she had returned to live with the family in March 2009. In April 2009 Danielle Jones had died after being run over by Janine Butcher by accident on the same day her mother Ronnie Mitchell found out about her being her daughter who she gave away nearly 20 years ago. Stacey had now not only lost her brother but her best friend which has made her go off the rails and cause her to have erratic behaviour as her mother Jean Slater thinks that she may have the same illness as her as she could see the signs for bi-polar disorder.

In May 2009 Stacey went to stay with cousin Lynne for a few weeks to get away from Walford but came back in June 2009 to face the fact she has the illness of bi-polar disorder just like her mother Jean. In August Charlie briefly moves to Medeira with his girlfriend Brenda but returns within a few days. When Charlie returns he brings back a new Russian friend named Orlenda, she stayed there for a few days but left when Charlie realised she was using him for his money. In October 2009 Jean had Stacey sectioned as Stacey's bi-polar disorder was spiraling out of control. Stacey returned in December 2009, pregnant with what she believed was a child by Archie Mitchell's rape. Bradley moved in with Stacey after they got back together, with Bradley pretending to be the baby's biological father. Stacey's friend Becca also moved in when she was released from the mental hospital. Becca, bitter when Bradley and Stacey marry, called the police to make them think Bradley killed Archie. Bradley then died while attempting to run from the cops, and Stacey, who had actually killed Archie, was devastated. She stayed in a flat out of town for a month before returning to Walford and her family. She gave birth several months later, to a daughter Lily, and tried to cope with raising her. Becca tried to control Stacey and all but cut Jean out of Stacey's life. Finally, when Jean told Stacey that Becca had called the police to report Bradley as Archie's killer, which had led to Bradley's death, Stacey cut Becca out of her life. Becca moved out, but not before throwing Bradley's urn against the wall, covering Stacey in his ashes.

The Slater house was shaken again when Kat Moon returned after nearly five years, now on the run from thugs over some money. Her estranged husband Alfie soon followed.

In the first few months of 2010, Dot lost her grandson Bradley after he fell off a roof while attempting to escape the police. Soon after this, Dotty's mother, whom Nick had told her was dead, showed up in Walford. Although Dot was fond of her granddaughter, she decided to let her go. Dot then lived alone with Jim and his carer, Liz Turner. Liz left the Square in August 2010 after learning of her son Owen's murder and seeing Lucas brought to justice.

In October 2007, Deano and Chelsea were imprisoned for six months for attempting to pervert the course of justice and Kevin died on New Year's Eve, leaving Pat, Carly, Denise, Libby and the recently returned Chelsea as the occupants. Pat's grandson Steven Beale also stayed there until Ian asked him to move in with the Beales at number 45. Carly and Denise have left on a trip, and Chelsea and Libby have moved in with the Truemans, leaving Pat living there alone, so she invited Billy and Honey Mitchell to move back in with their children Janet and William, only to have Honey refuse, but after some intervention from The Mitchells, they accepted.

Whitney finds out and hides the knife herself so that neither Debra nor Ryan will be able to find the knife. Whitney soon wanted to become a happy family with Debra and Ryan bu Debra said it was never going to happen and Ryan was going to leave Walford but stayed because of Whitney and Ronnie Mitchell. Ryan later moved out after Bianca had said that it was getting too crowded with so many people living in the same house so he decided to look for somewhere else to live and ended up being Janine Butcher's flatmate. In Mid October 2009 Ricky moved back in with fiancee Sam Mitchell despite Bianca's dismay. Sam moved out two days later as she couldn't handle living with Ricky and Bianca's kids.

45 Albert Square

45 Albert Square ("Rosedene") has been home to the Beale family since the start of the Second World War (1939) when it had an outside toilet. The property was owned by the council until 2004 when Pauline purchased it from them. Lou Beale lived here until she died in 1988. Her children Pauline and Pete were born in the house, and Pauline later lived here with her husband Arthur and their children Mark, Michelle and Martin. Mark and Michelle later moved out, and Arthur died. Pauline's friend Derek Harkinson moved in with her but moved out after an argument. Martin's wife Sonia also moved in, and Pauline handed over half the house to Martin and Sonia. Sonia left Martin for Naomi Julien and moved out again. Pauline's new husband Joe Macer and his friend Bert Atkinson since moved in, but in April 2006 Pauline kicked them both out after her discovery of their criminal past and dumped them on Dot and Jim Branning. Pauline eventually relented and let Joe return home in June 2006.

Pauline lived in the house alone again after learning that Martin and Sonia were back together. She accidentally stared a fire in the kitchen, but she continued to live there alone. Pauline was due to go to America on Christmas Day 2006, and packed all her things, but died in the Square after arguing with Sonia in the living room, which ended in Pauline getting slapped and both her, and her treasured fruit bowl smashed off of the ground and also with Joe (off-screen). Martin then set about clearing all her belongings out of the house.

On 26 January 2007, Joe confessed to Dot that he had caused Pauline's death by hitting her with a frying pan. Dot tried to tell her husband Jim but Joe covered her mouth. Jim freed Dot and in the struggle, Joe fell through the bedroom window and onto the Fowler family run market stall, and died instantly.

In Pauline's will, she left her half of the house to Martin. The mortgage was now paid through an insurance policy of Pauline's. Pauline's will, however, stated that Martin would lose his right to her half of the house if he lived there with Sonia. Sonia, Martin and Rebecca left Walford.The will stated that if Martin was denied his right to the house, it was to go to his cousin, Ian Ian Beale, who moved in an currently lives there with his family. The house was then currently empty, although Pauline's ashes remained on the mantelpiece until Dot Cotton buried them by Arthur Fowler, who was Pauline's first husband. While it was empty, Peter Beale and Jay Brown broke in, as did Max Branning and Stacey Slater. Honey Mitchell expressed interest in renting it from Ian but Ian refused to rent to the Mitchells.

In April, Ian decided to move in there himself with his family, but Peter and Lucy refused because they believed the ghost of Pauline would haunt them. Eventually Ian gave the ashes to Dot and Peter and Lucy agreed that as Pauline's ashes were no longer in the house, she would not haunt them. Dot had them in her house for a few months until her and Ian decided to place them to rest in Arthur's grave so they now are together since 1996 for eternity.

Ian has since realised the living room and the dining room were too small so he knocked the wall out between the two rooms to make more room. When the house was owned by Pauline, the living room was used as a bedroom, for when Pauline's son and family lived there. When Ethel Skinner was gravely ill, Pauline let her live there. Ethel asked Dot Cotton to euthanise her on her 80th birthday, and after a while, reluctantly agreed. The dining room was used both as a living room and a dining room, where Pauline's treasured fruit bowl sat on the table for years. The kitchen has now been re-fitted and the old fireplace in the kitchen has been raised up a bit since Pauline lived there. There are now three bedrooms – the master, Lucy's, which she now shares with Bobby, and the attic conversion that Joe and Bert made, shared by Steven and Peter until Steven's departure.

Jane's brother, Christian turned up in January 2008 and lived with the Beales for a month, sleeping on the sofa until Ian leased the flat above Beale's place to him. Lucy stayed with Christian for a few months due to family issues but has since moved back in with Ian and his family.

From November 2008 to February 2009 Jane's mother Linda Clarke had come to stay for a few months as she had split up with Jane and Christian's father Roger Clarke as he had been having an affair.

In December 2008 - January 2009 Lauren Branning briefly lived with the Beales after Tanya Branning had asked best friend Jane Beale to look after her while Tanya was in prison as she covered for Lauren as Lauren could not live with her father Max Branning as she had run him over in October 2008.

In May 2009 Ian, Jane and Bobby went on a trip to Scotland and returned at the end of June 2009. They had left Christian in charge of looking after Lucy and Peter and taking care of the businesses. Christian has also moved in while Ian and Jane are away to look after Lucy and Peter.

As part of a wife-swap Jane has swapped places with best friend Tanya Branning for a week. In November 2009 Jane had left Walford for a while as she felt she needed a break from Ian as he wouldn't understand her need for a child of her own. In December 2009 Jane returned to the Beales. In the first half of 2010 Lucy got pregnant, and agreed to give the baby to Jane, but Ian convinced her to have an abortion and lie that she'd miscarried. Ian, Lucy, and Peter kept this secret from Jane. Lucy also cheated on her exams, with Ian's blessing. When the school found out and told Lucy she would have to take them all over again, Lucy was angry that Ian pretended he hadn't known what she'd done. She went to stay with her grandmother Bev. Ian and Jane divorce, and she leaves Walford in January 2012. Ian gets engaged to Mandy Salter, and a returning Lucy tries to split them up. Ian suffers from a nervous breakdown after Ben Mitchell confides in him about killing Heather Trott. Mandy's mum Lorraine passes away, and Mandy wants to postpone the wedding and grieve however Ian refuses to let her and carries on with their wedding plans. On their wedding day, Ian's erratic behaviour worsens when he and Lucy have a row and he chooses Mandy over Lucy. Mandy is perturbed by this and tells Ian she is leaving him.
