Lookup neighboring houses in 1851 census

Could a kind fellow Wikitree-er who has access to the 1851 UK census images please look up the households next door to where Henry Edward Line was living in St Giles In The Fields & St George Bloomsbury  - he is listed as "son" but there are no other entries in the Familysearch listing:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGNK-8C3

Are there any other Line family members nearby? "Son" could simply be a mistake, of course.

Thanks in advance

There is nothing.  He is on a line of his own, uninhabited dwelling on one side, unrelated family on the other.

The neighbour at the occupied house is here: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGNK-8C9

Note that the transcriber has listed Henry Edward Line as the son of that couple -- despite the last name difference; and despite that the supposed father would have been rather promiscuous at age 16 to be having sex with a girl who wasn't even a twinkle in her father's eye; and that the supposed "mother" was not even born.
Thank you very much!

None that I can find. Ancestry has him mistakenly listed as son of his direct neighbours, but they are about his age. The other neighbouring property is recorded as uninhabited. He is clearly recorded as son in the census, but he is also clearly living in his own property, he has his own address and schedule number, distinct from any neighbours.

You can take a look at an image of the page here

A wider search doesn't throw up any nearby Lines.
