Nursery Lane in Central City, Christchurch

Nurseryman Lane and nothing on the library website as it is too new. There was an article on Stuff dated 21st June 2016 about the naming of new lanes. The information in the article about this lane was rather brief and just said that is was reference to a nursery set up in 1851 by William William who was the first mayor of Christchurch. I covered William Wilson fairly fully under Bedford Row. He was from Scotland and he was charged with fraud in 1876 and this concerned a will where he was the executor. His wife left him in 1877 after years of abuse from him. He was charged with threatening behaviour towards his wife. This lane runs from Lichfield St to Tuam St and is near Madras St and is mostly runs along the back of businesses. There is also a car park here.
