In 1855 a Thomas Hemingway lived at Number 10 Totten Street, Stepney, so it looks like tat is the word.

I think that this link gives you the description of the enumeration district: http://content.ancestry.co.uk/Browse/view.aspx?dbid=8860&iid=MDXHO107_1551_1552-0147 where the word definitely looks like Totten.

It looks just north of Commercial Road, in the region of Belgrave St and Bromley St.
