Sandringham Place in Bryndwr – Named after Sandringham in Norfolk, England. About 1963 Waimairi County Council minuted a policy that all its streets be named after English place names.
In a subdivision developed by Maurice F. Carter Ltd. First appears in street directories in 1962. Information supplied in 2008 by Maurice Carter (d. 2011) in an interview with Margaret Harper.
A small amount of information from the library website and not a lot that I can add to it.
All houses on the street were built in 1960s and Papers Past didn’t have much information. The street had a few entries in best street competitions in 1960s and it was also mentioned in the 1962 article about taking a Sunday Drive. The houses were typical 1960s houses but most had lovely gardens. It is a tree lined street with a walkway through to Sevenoaks Drive. I quite liked this street and one house had a cute letterbox that looked like a dog
