Glencoe Street in the suburb of Burnside, Christchurch

Glencoe Street in Burnside – nothing on library website which surprised me as the houses were built in the 1960s and there is a mention in Papers Past as early as 1960. Papers Past mentions this area including this street as being sold off by Lands and Survey Dept and is a subdivision being developed by the Housing Division of the MOW. I suspect that the street is named after Glencoe in Scotland and I loved my stay in the YHA in Glencoe.

Another pleasant tree lined street with some nice gardens. There was a fence that I liked as it was made out of driftwood. At the end of the street there is a walkway through to Ambleside Drive.
