1862 The Gazette listed 17 property owners along Cabbage Tree Swamp Road who were prepared to be specially rated to have their road improved. 1865 A 30 acre block of land owned by Allan Kerr Taylor called ‘Morningside’, was auctioned. 96 of 120 sections sold, thus forming the village of Morningside. The subdivision was advertised, being described as approached from the city by a ‘good paved road, scoria dressed’. 1866 With the Turnpikes Act three toll gates were set up in the west due to increased pressure from a growing population for better roads. One of these was at the approach to Mt Albert at the New North Road – Mt Eden Road junction. Feb 13 1866 A meeting of Mt Albert settlers a ‘Allendale’ interested in the formation and maintenance of New North Road decided that a board should be formed and that the district should extend from Mt Eden Road to the Great North Road junction. Oct 1866 Mt Albert was declared a highway district 1867 First rates struck (for roads) |
