Leonard Place in the suburb of St Martins, Christchurch

Leonard Place – Leonard Street first appears in street directories in 1950. Becomes Leonard Place in 1979.
Very little information on the library website. A very small street in Hillsborough/ St Martins and the houses here all looked new so I am guessing that they are all rebuilds. There was one where I would loved to have taken a photo but the occupants were all in the garden. It was an ugly house that looked more like a toilet block than a house. The photo that I did get was of a row of houses which looked more like a motel than houses. These houses were on the border of Leonard Place and Charlene Place. The streets were divided by a drain.
