Quarters Place in the suburb of Halswell, Christchurch

Quarters Place in Halswell – Named after the old stone cottage where many of the Halswell Quarry workers lived and which still remains in its original state. In the Quarry View subdivision. The developers submitted street names having a connection with the Halswell Quarry, its location and its product. Named in 2012. A small amount of information from the library website. At first I read the library description incorrectly and thought that they meant that the old stone cottage is actually on this street. The stone cottage is at at Halswell Quarry and I have visited it several times. This street runs off Findlay Ave and there is still houses being built here. A couple are occupied and I quite liked the house which used stone within the design.
