Map 1937<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

MAP OF LAYOUT AS ORIGINALLY INTENDED<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Layout as attached to the Title Deeds of the Paddocks Estate at Portslade in the County of Sussex dated 1934<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will note that the upper end of Stanley Avenue and Chrisdory Road were not shown on this map..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stables are where the shops now stand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We believe that the ground that Chrisdory Road and the upper end of Stanley Avenue were built on belonged to Mr. Painter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and was known as the Kennels. Hence the reason it is not shown on this map.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 It is understood that Chrisdory Road was named after Mr. Painters children – Christopher and 
Dorothy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chrisdory Road was briefly known as The Kennels<\/p>\n\n\n\n
