1841 Census Help

Hi,

Anyone able to make out what it says for Profession next to my ancestor William Toy?

Also, is that Green Hill where he resides?

Also while I'm on the subject - some of the houses don't have numbers. Like this:

Or are the numbers in the first col? Because the title of the column say No. Of Householders.
