Rosamund Place in Halswell – In a joint development by Andrew James Cunningham (1906- 1985), a farmer of 250 Halswell Road, and International Homes. The street was legalised on 10 September 1970. First appears in street directories in 1972. Information supplied in 2014 by Bob Pritchard, subdivisions officer, Christchurch City Council.
A small amount of information from the library and I couldn’t find out who the street was named after. Papers Past only had a couple of death notices and a few ads.
Most of the houses here were built in the 1970s and are on fairly large sections. The ones built in 2015 were built where there had been a large house going by google maps.
This was a pleasant street and many of the properties had nice gardens. One house I really did like and it had a lovely garden. One house had a fun letterbox.
