Coronation Street – Named to commemorate the coronation of Edward VII (1841-1910) on 26 June 1902.
A small amount of information from the library website. Not a lot that I can add here. I don’t normally walk the full street here as I usually divert through the park and play Pokemon. Lots of older villas on this street with a few newer places. This street runs from Selwyn St to Barrington St and it feels like it should be part of Selwyn St. I checked Papers Past and couldn’t find anything about the naming of this street. In the 1910s several articles and one was about tramlines. Also the articles sometimes said Spreydon and others said Woolston. The same street or was there two Coronation Streets.
