Tempering Drive in the suburb of Halswell, Christchurch

Tempering Drive in Halswell and is too new for library website. This street runs off Muirhill St and so new that it didn’t have any character for me. There are still houses being built here but a couple are occupied. The name tempering is fairly obvious and mostly used these days in connection with steel. It is also in metallurgy and the history is that it is an ancient heat treating technique.
