A 'road' of some sort yes. But the OS Streetview maps sometimes aren't 
clear whether its an unclassified road, a residential road, a driveway 
or farm track or a path etc. Plus a few roads which are still under 
construction.

Anyway, isn't this thread is about names from OS Locator, not names from 
OS Streetview.
