Resolved - That the name "Eastleigh Crescent" be approved for a new street on the property of Mr Humphrey Barron, situate off Upper Newtownards Road. (15th April 1930) Eastleigh features in the 1877 BPUD. It is likely the "Eastleigh streets" take their name from the area or from Eastleigh house. There was an advertisement for the sale of Eastleigh House in the Northern Whig - Wednesday 21 May 1884.
