Sure - I understand that you were correctly flagging the ambiguity 
associated with the term, but what I was saying was that one of those 
three definitions doesn't match any common usage in British English of 
which I'm aware.

For example, if you said "X is a townhouse" you wouldn't think that X 
was where Lord so-and-so lived while not at his country pile, but if you 
said "X is the town house of Lord so-and-so" it would.

Cheers,
