Nehru Place in Cashmere – Named after Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964). Nehru was the first Prime Minister of India at independence in 1947, holding the office until his death. One of the streets in Cashmere given the name of a place in India. First appears in street directories in 1987.
A small amount of information from the library and the street is actually named after a person and not a place.
Most houses here were built in the 1980s and there was a footpath on only one side of the street. A couple of houses looked quite nice and they were made from dark coloured wood. One ugly modern house had lawns made from artificial grass. I looked at this option for my place now that I am slightly older and hate gardening but it wasn’t good for the environment. I do like looking at gardens
