Thanks Philip, I can't see Clarence Terr. on Streetmap at all and wonder if it was absorbed into Clarence Parade.

A number of groups of houses were built in Portsmouth (and I should imagine elsewhere) as '"terraces" (my mother was born in one such). Over the years they got mostly absorbed into the main street or road they were built on, and the old terrace names mostly dropped, as more building was carried out and house numbering was rationalised.
