Remember that homes listed as located within "Glade Road" in the past may actually be in the streets nearby. Glade Road was developed first and for a lack of specific address for themselves some new homes in the nearby area built in what was fields or down as yet unamed roads used "Glade Road" as a postal address as it was their nearest named location. Similarly homes given historically as in "New Town" will be in the general area of but not necessarily actually in what is now New Town Road. The same applies to homes formerly described as being in "The Claremont Estate" or "Claremont Garden Estate" - they may have been in what is now Claremont Road or Claremont Gardens or in nearby streets.
