Blowers Place in the suburb of Halswell, Christchurch

Blowers Place – Named after Raymond Frederick William “Freddie” Blowers (1849?- 1943). Blowers was an early Halswell apiarist and labourer. He farmed in Paterson Avenue (later Kennedys Bush Road). Named in 2001.
Interesting information from library website. Another street with modern houses. There was one house that I would have loved to have been able to get photos of because of garden decorations. Trouble was the owner was sat at her window having a cuppa. The best description of the garden decorations would be kitsch but I quite liked them.
