Tekoa Place in Hoon Hay – Named after the Glens of Tekoa Station, one of North Canterbury’s large back country sheep stations in the Culverden district. In a subdivision where the streets are named after rivers or properties in North Canterbury. First appears in street directories in 1962.
A small amount of information from the library website and nothing that I can add about the name of the street. Very little information on Papers Past. A few death notices and sections were for sales in 1960 and 1962. It was mentioned as a new street in 1959.
The street and houses didn’t really stand out for me and the houses were all built in the 1960s.
