Lochhead Avenue in the suburb of Halswell, Christchurch

Lochhead Avenue in Halswell and too new for library website. A tiny amount of information from the council website – Robert Lochhead is understood to have been an owner of the property in the 1930’s.

I searched Papers Past and ancestry website but couldn’t find a Robert Lochhead living here. There were a couple in Leeston and one who possibly owned Molesworth Station. If he owned land here he didn’t live on the property.

The houses here were mostly built in 2021 and none of them stood out but the gardens were more established than ones in the nearby streets. I couldn’t resist taking a photo of one garden as it still had Christmas decorations in the garden.
