There's a similar street in Bath, that is Hanover Terrace on one side
and Gillingham Terrace on the other side. Google shows it as Hanover
Terrace. The A-Z as Gillingham Terrace. I put both in OSM but that's
always too long to show up.

Google does know the existence of the unlabelled name though:

64,-2.352995&sspn=0.00952,0.027037&ie=UTF8&z=17&ll=51.393362,-2.352995&s
pn=0.00476,0.013518&om=1&iwloc=addr
