Malachy Grove – In stages 8 and 9 of the Aidanfield subdivision where all the street names are those of former Sisters of the Good Shepherd Order and former residents of the Good Shepherd Sisters Home at Halswell. Named in 2011.
A small amount of information from the library website. It was probably named after Sister Malachy Rodgers who died 29th December 1937 aged 66.Sister Malachy Rodgers was on plaque in cemetery but death notice has Sister Mary (Rodgers) of St Malachy. Only 16 houses here and most were built in 2014. I walked through the small reserve from Euphrasie Drive to this street. Footpath on only one side of the street. One house was almost toilet block style but not ugly enough for me to take a photo. A couple of nice gardens but mostly immaculate lawns with a few shrubs. A couple of houses I almost liked. Plenty of green space for walking but I have heard that the area can be a nightmare when the nearby sports hub is being used.
