Flaxon Place in the suburb of Burwood, Christchurch

Flaxon Place in Burwood- Named because of an association of the name with swamps or wetlands. A subdivision developed off Kingsbridge Drive by Enterprise Homes on the opposite side of Travis Road to the Travis Wetland Nature Heritage Park. Flaxon Fells was the first name suggested. Named in 2006.A small amount of information from the library website and nothing that I can add to this. This street runs from Kingsbridge Drive to a wee park that takes to to a street called Kingsbridge West. There are 27 houses here and they all look very new but valuation website had several built pre earthquake. None of the houses looked like they were more than a couple of years old. The houses mostly just had lawns and no gardens. There was a mixture of styles so at least it wasn’t a row of identical houses.
