Cardigan Bay Place – Named after the racehorse Cardigan Bay (1956-1988). He was probably named after Cardigan Bay in Wales. Cardigan Bay was New Zealand’s most famous pacer and first in the world to earn a million dollars. Formed in 1994 on a subdivision of Addington raceway land and part of a broad plan for residential development in the area.
A bit of information from the library website and I didn’t need this website to know how the street got the name as this horse is famous in NZ. Nice looking brick houses here and most had nice gardens but the only photo I managed to get was of the reserve at the end of the street. The photo is a bit dark.
