I've used the old name to cover the block that is made up of numbers 195-203, Horizon and Dorset Court that is located between Carlisle Road and Walsingham Road. The ten house terrace originally covered the whole block and was built in the 1880s. Numbers 9-10 on the corner of Carlisle Road was destroyed by a bomb during World War Two and was replaced by Dorset Court in 1958. Numbers 6-8 were deemed to be unsafe and pulled down in 1964, see http://regencysociety-jamesgray.com/volume15/source/jg_15_036.html , and replaced by flats used as a police convalescent home which moved to Surrey in 1988 then as the Excelsior Hotel. This was refurbished in 2004 as a new apartment block called Horizon. Numbers 1-5 survive and were renumbered 195-203 Kingsway in the 1960s as Walsingham Terrace disappeared.
