Kent Street in the suburb of Sydenham, Christchurch

Kent Street was developed off the end of Caton Street. First mentioned in The Press in 1892 when moves were made to develop it into a public street. First appears in street directories in 1904.
Not much on the library website but then it is a tiny street in Sydenham. I didn’t take any photos as there are just a couple of businesses here and it actually it runs off Disraeli Street. Most likely named after Kent in England.
