Is it me? The square root of 169 is 13, so the answer is TREIZE (French for thirteen). That was clearly the only answer that the setter could fit in - so had to word the clue in French ?

Sorry QM , I was mistranslating "carree" --- I had it in my head that it was a type of thoroughfare and not a "square of a number". Apologies !

No prob - perhaps you're thinking of 'calle' - Spanish for street.
