Located in a 40-metre gap in the houses. Numbers 17 to 23 Duffryn Terrace formerly occupied this area. One reference source states that the missing houses were destroyed in a bombing raid in the Second World War. However, a correspondent has informed me that the houses were demolished because of subsidence caused by a mine collapsing beneath them.
