Gilchrist Meadows
Key facts: Status: proposed/approved new street name (BCC). Location: off Edenderry Road, BT8.
KMBC Ltd proposed Gilchrist Meadows as its first choice for the new street name because the site is in close proximity to Gilchrist Bridge. The second choice was Ruby Meadows (adjacent to Ruby Cottages). The third choice was St Ellens Meadows (the site shares a boundary with St Ellens Terrace). The application particulars were in order; Royal Mail had no objections; and the proposed name did not duplicate an existing approved street name in the city.
