Re: Street Names

What an interesting thread - I hadn't noticed it before.

I was told that Brown Street got its name from when the builders were constructing the houses along there. They were cooking up their breakfast and one builder asked another how he wanted his bacon cooked...don't know if it's true.

However, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how my old street, Claret Street, got its name? It's the only one in the country, so maybe there's a story behind it.
