Seaspray Lane in Scarborough and no information on the library website. There are only three houses here built in 2000. The name is probably because the street is in a seaside suburb but I couldn’t find anything on the council website about the naming of this street. There is a reserve called Margaret E Greening Memorial Reserve at the start of the street but I couldn’t find out any information about this reserve. I searched older maps plus looked at a book by Gordon Ogilvie with no luck. From Papers Past I found some information from 1995 that might relate to this street. There was a block of land between Heberden Ave and Scarborough Road that belonged to the council. The council decided that it was surplus to their requirement and one article said that it was for waterworks and drainage. The other article said that it was no longer required for roading purposes.
When I walked the street today it looked like more houses are being built. There are also some steps that look like they go down to a track. I asked a local and he said that it is still a proper track. I will have to come back and check out the track. No photos for this street and nothing on street view. I would love to have taken a photo of this man’s house as half of it was painted bright yellow.
