History
Halliwick Road did not exist before 1900.
In 1912, the Ordnance Survey Map shows eight houses (1-15) on the north side of the road and ten on the south side (2-20), all at the Colney Hatch end. That year, planning applications were submitted for houses at the Coppets Road end, from No. 80 to 96, all built between 1913 and 1915.
In between them, are the Homes for Heroes. They were created by Prime Minister David Lloyd after World War I as council houses for returning soldiers and their families, to ensure that those who served in the war had access to decent and affordable housing.
With very few exceptions, all these council houses were acquired by their tenants at a discounted price and resold on the open market in the 1980s after Thatcher’s ‘Right to Buy’ policy.
The earliest reference I found to when they were built is in a 1917 obituary: George Tucknott, Private, Alexandra, Princess of Wales’ Own (Yorkshire Regiment), died 7 June 1917 age 20. Son of Rosina C Trucknott, 56 Halliwick Road (All Over by Christmas. Page 263)
So, despite the differences in size and design, it looks like all of Halliwick Road was brought into being over a 15-20 year period and all houses are more than 100 years old.
Let me know if you find different information.
