It is called London Lives and is a collection of documents relating to London from 1690 to 1800
It describes itself as:-
"Sources for London Lives
A fully searchable edition of 240,000 manuscripts from eight archives and fifteen datasets, giving access to 3.35 million names."

He is listed as a "household" of one, with no family or other residents listed.
This is in fact not true.
The address for Barnett in 1911 was 60 Red Lion Street and three households (including him) were listed...

1911 Census
60 Red Lion Street, St George in the East, London
Residents:-

Head: Sarah Ann Jones (Widow) aged 58 born Whitechapel - Charwoman
Son: Thomas Jones aged 26 born Whitechapel - Dock labourer
Sarah Jones is listed as married 31 years and as having had 14 children, of whom 12 have died.

Head: Mary Ann Sowerby (Widow) aged 52 born St Georges - Retired cleaner
Listed as having borne 4 children, of whom 1 has died.
Daughter: Mary Ann Stanford (Widow) aged 30 born St Georges - Cleaner at Poor Law Infirmary
Grand-daughters:-
Maggie Stanford aged 6
Lizzie Stanford aged 4
MaryAnn Stanford aged 5 months
All born in Wapping

Head: Joseph Barnett (Married) aged 53 born Whitechapel - Market Porter (Fish) at Billingsgate
Listed as married for 23 years but with no children.
He is listed as married, not widowed, but no wife is listed.

I am also attaching, as I don't remember seeing before, the schedule cover for Barnett for that census.

Here's an early case that Dr Bond was involved with, which caused quite a sensation at the time. Interestingly, Fred Abberline was also involved in the Police investigations of this case.
