Lady Nugent Lane in the suburb of Halswell, Christchurch

Lady Nugent Lane in Halswell – Named after the Lady Nugent. The Lady Nugent was an immigrant ship which brought Edmund Storr Halswell to New Zealand in 1841. The street names in the Milns Estate subdivision all have an historical connection with the Halswell area. Named in 1999

A small amount of information from the library website and note I am using the old website and not the new revamped unimproved website.

Nothing that I can add about the name of the street. The ship’s passenger list for 1841 can be found online. The ship was built in Bombay in 1813 and it foundered in May 1854 with the loss of about 400 lives. The ship was mostly carrying soldiers.

There are only 6 houses here all built in 2000 and I didn’t actually walk the street. There wasn’t a footpath and it just looks like a private driveway.
