Highcrest Heights in Westmorland and there wasn’t anything on the library website. I was surprised as many of the houses were built in 1990s but most were built in 2000s. I searched to find a reason for the name but couldn’t find a place name in the UK. The name is probably from the street being on a hill. There is a house on the corner of Highcrest Heights and Somerton Rise called Highcrest and I suspect that this house belonged to the original developer of the streets.
Several of the houses were built in what I always think of as Mediterranean style. The houses here were large with lovely gardens but well above my budget. I don’t normally like modern houses but I did like many of the houses on this street. There is also a reserve with a playground and guess where I was geocaching. One of the locals told me that they found moa bones when the area was being developed. There was one idiot who was so badly parked that they were blocking part of the street.
