Halley Place in red zone of Avonside – Named after Kevin Noel Halley (1929- 1996).Halley was a Justice of the Peace and friend and workmate of the Ryan family. Named by Mary Catherine Ryan (1892- 1978), wife of William Nicholas Ryan (1885- 1950), a contractor. First appears in street directories in 1977. Information supplied in 2008 by Jack Ryan, in a letter to Margaret Harper.
A reasonable amount of information from the library website and not a lot that I can add to it. Very little information on Papers Past and in 1972 there were 13 sections available with houses to be built by Fletcher Construction Company. In 1973 the ads were saying that there were a variety of prestige buildings available. The only street view that I could find on google maps was from 2012 and many of the houses had already been demolished. A couple looked like they still had people living in them. Obviously there are no longer any houses here and I walked here yesterday while walking back to my car after doing a geocaching lab adventure.
