Street Names

The information on this page was compiled by the Rev. David Hayes, former Archives Chairman of the Concord Heritage Society. The information has been taken from many sources – books and leaflets – published by this society and others. Where no specific information could be ascertained from records David searched other records to try to reach an informed guess at the reason for the name.

This project included the suburbs in the old Concord Municipality. If you have information on any street names included in the City of Canada Bay Council, please contact us and let us know. Your help will build our knowledge of the area.

If you are aware of any errors please do not hesitate to contact the City of Canada Bay Heritage Society to have the matters corrected.
