If you go to.
www.multimap.com
Put Leominster in the search box and keep zooming in on the image, you'll get all the street names.
There's certainly an Etnam Street in Leominster.

Hello Kno

Thanks for the reply. I have tried that but can't find it. Thats why I wondered if anyone could look for me or knew if it was still there.
Merry Christmas Pheobe :)

It is still there as an Indian restaurant is there. Just put -etnam street-into your browser for proof.
It  has been there a long time too:

The address column is headed with what looks like '181 Edar St' (the Duggans are at No 182) but if you click on the census image of the previous page the address column is clearly headed 'Edgar St' and no 179 appears at the foot of the page.

FindMyPast gives the address as Edgar St, All Saints, Hereford  - Leominster is listed as the "Municipal Ward".

regards

I live in Hereford and Edgar Street is the main access route through the city. Hereford United FC ground lies on Edgar Street as does the Cattle Market. There is a huge redevelopment happening on Edgar Street in the coming months and the Cattle market is being moved to a new location.

I am not sure but there are some Victorian terraced housing at the top end of Edgar Street and maybe the nuber you state 181 may still be there? But there has been a lot of develpment gone on since the 1800's. So I wouldn't be sure???  If you like the next timne im passing I will see if I can find the house and take a photo for you if you like?

Just PM me and let me now...And there are a lot of Duggans in Herefordshire. I'm sure there is a Haulage Firm called Duggans.

Oh and one more thing which is really neat...if you go to Google Maps and look at Edgar Street? You can view through Google Earth and look at Street View...you can take a virtual trip down Edgar Street... 8)
