Subject: New Street Name for Residential Development @ Broughton Road


Dear Councillor Davies

Further to our meeting today I can advise that as the street has vehicular access from Pilrig Gardens, the name Pilrig would reinforce the local identity and simplify matters for individuals/services attempting to locate the properties.

The current Pilrigs in use as listed below in red:

Pilrig Cottages
Pilrig Gardens
Pilrig Glebe
Pilrig House Close
Pilrig Place
Pilrig Street

Some suggestions could include:

Pilrig Heights (reflecting the scale of the flatted development)
Pilrig End (the last point or termination of the street)
Pilrig Gait (a way, path or street in a town)
Pilrig Way (a passage, road, street or track; a direction)

I would be obliged to receive you views on a preferred option once you have had the opportunity to discuss locally.

Trust this is of assistance.

Kind regards
