New street name required

I have been advised by the City Development Department that associated with the new development of flats on the lock up garage site at Churchill Place/East Links Place is a new road which will require a new street name.

The local councillors, community council and others have been asked to give this some consideration and forward any suggestions for names before Monday 16th December.

When a name has been chosen after consultation has been completed, it will be put to committee for approval.

Churchill Place was named after Lord Randolph Churchill, father of Winston, and Salisbury Place was named after the Conservative Prime Minister the Marquess of Salisbury. It might be an idea to name the new street after another eminent nineteenth century politician. It has also been suggested that  the name should incorporate “Sandy Hole” as this is what the area was know as by the local community.

Send me an email and let me know what you think? I will be happy to hear your suggestions.
