Capri Lane in the suburb of Hoon Hay, Christchurch

Capri Lane in Hoon Hay – nothing on library website yet the oldest house here is from 1950s plus there is a house from 1960s. The rest of the houses were mostly built in 1970s. Couldn’t find out how the street got it’s name.

Not much information on Papers Past. Sections were for sale in 1976 and it was described as an exclusive subdivision.

I actually walked past this street without realising that it was a street and had to go back to Hoon Hay Rd to walk it. It just looked like a driveway. There was a tiny footpath that went part way down the lane. I kept to the footpath so only walked part of it.
