Briarmont Street in the suburb of Avondale, Christchurch

Briarmont St in Avondale – First appears in street directories in 1987. A tiny amount from the library website. Briar is a prickly plant.

I actually walked this street back in April. Most houses here were built in the 1980s and 1990s and it looked like a pleasant street. The houses were a variety of styles and for some reason many had very steep roofs. One mock tudor style which always amuses me. The street is blocked off at the Hulverstone Drive end and this part of the street is red zoned.
