STREET Names Given To Shipyard Housing Sites
Saturday, 21 January 2012 | 
NEW roads in the housing development at Kingston have been given names reflecting the area’s industrial past.
Two sections of road within the Port Glasgow part of the site are being named after a building which stood within the shipyards there – Adamston Way – and after the iron works which was next to the site – Iron Way.
Three sections of road in the Greenock part of the site are being named after areas or buildings which previously occupied the Inch Works shipyard – Inch Way after the Inch Works; Flax Way, after the flax bleaching ground for sail whitening; and Crunes Way, after a building within the Kingston Sawmill works.
