Muirson Ave in Hoon Hay – Named after Reginald Gordon Vivian Muirson (1913-1990). Muirson was a builder of “spec” houses in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. First appears in street directories in 1952. Muirson’s dates supplied in 2008 by Marie Shears, formerly Woolley.
A small amount of information from the library website and nothing that I can add about the name of the street. A small number of entries on Papers Past. There were sections available in 1954. In 1953 there was a fire in the rubbish dump that was owned by the Heathcote County Council.
Only 13 houses here and most were built in the 1950s and the oldest house was the art deco house built in the 1940s.
