So, it seems that Fairfield [Road] isn't known to either OS or Google. It is shown (in abbreviated form) on streetmap.co.uk, but at that zoom level, in London, that's based on the Bartholomew A-Z maps rather than OS.

For what it's worth, I also found it in a street atlas published by Geographia. I don't know if that's the same company as A-Z.

Geographia is a former publisher of maps, now defunct (and not related to the US company of the same name).

I also don't know the date of the street atlas and neither do I know how old a street atlas (non-OS) would have to be in order to be able to copy a name from it.

For non-OS maps, copyright expires 70 years after the death of the last surviving major contributor. The wiki has some information on this:

The atlas should have a publication date on it, somewhere.
