This terrace was absorbed into Cambridge Road circa 1876[1], receiving the name of Linton Terrace in a council meeting held in August 1860; the properties being described as 'All the buildings in Bohemia Road, from the Congregational Chapel to Prospect Terrace'[2]; the Congregational Chapel referred to here being the Robertson Street Congregational Church, and Prospect Terrace comprising the houses the other side of the steps leading to Claremont.

By 1882, the Young Women's Christian Association had their meeting room in Linton Terrace[3].
