Glebe Place – not on library website under street names. Couldn’t find any extra information online and it isn’t on QV website. I couldn’t even find real estate ads for it. have walked this tiny street so I know that it does exist and the houses are mostly fairly modern brick houses. I found two possible reasons for the name. One is that Glebe means church land but I suspect that the real reason for the name relates to Gloster Glebe fighter plane. I found a blog on the library website about Henry Wigram donating money in 1923 to the government for the purchase of a Gloster Glebe plane.
