Resolved - That the name Watt Street be approved for a new street on the property of Mr. J. S. Scott, off Ravenhill Avenue. (1st April 1930).
This street was close to Ampere Court which in turn is likely this to have been named owing to its proximity to an electrical engineering works: Hugh J Scott Co. Ltd. called Volt Works in 1902 on the OSNI Historical Third Edition (1900 - 1907) map. It became Thrige-Scott and was then bought over by the electrical engineers ABB. ".
