Pukeuri Lane in the suburb of Hillsborough, Christchurch

Pukeuri Lane in Hillsborough – First appears in street directories in 1993.

A tiny amount of information from the library website. When I googled Pukeuri it only came up with the town that is near Oamaru. The meaning of the name is probably dark hill.

I only walked a tiny part of this street as I didn’t feel comfortable walking the rest of it. There was a footpath but most of it seemed to be part of the properties here. None of the houses stood out for me and most were built in the 1990s and made from brick. Brick was a very common building material in the 1990s. There were a couple of houses from post earthquakes. Looked like a pleasant street but parking would be a nightmare.
