Benrogan Drive, Perks Drive and Eastman Drive in the suburb of Halswell, Christchurch

Benrogan Drive, Perks Drive and Eastman Drive in Halswell. Too new to be on library website and the roads are still only half formed. No houses yet. The land was was sold in 2020 and had a 1970s house on it. The nearby wetlands area is called Eastman Wetlands and it is possibly named after Roy Eastman who had a connection to the council but I couldn’t find out any information. I was amused to see that the property developers are offering a free geotech report. As this land used to be a swamp I would arrange my own geotech report rather than trust the developer’s one. The council meeting that approved the names didn’t give a reason for the names.
