Pavilion Crescent in Hillmorton – In the first stage of Linden Grove, a Ngāi Tahu subdivision developed on the site of the former Sunnyside Hospital. Named in 2007.
A small amount of information from the library website. The council report about the subdivision only had a list of names to be approved and no reason for the names. I suspect that there was a cricket pavilion here as there are two tiny streets running off Pavilion Crescent called The Oval and The Wickets.
There are only 12 houses here and most were built in 2010 with a couple built in 2000. They all looked exactly the same but there is a nice park nearby called Pavilion Park. I was getting clues for a multi geocache and hadn’t actually planned on walking any streets yesterday as I am behind in researching and writing up streets that I have walked in recent weeks.
