Now official – Shornden Passage.<\/p><\/div>\n

Written by\u00a0John Humphries<\/a>\u00a0(Nov 2006)<\/p>\n

A Bohemia twitten has been named.\u00a0It\u2019s taken 100 years for Shornden Passage, which runs between Upper Park Road and Upper South Road to officially acquire its name.<\/p>\n

Ron Salt of Top Gun Clothing which is situated in the walkway, said \u201cWe have now agreed that the passage is officially known as Shornden Passage and that the Highways and Postal Authorities have confirmed it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Bohemia Area Association<\/a>\u00a0is currently soliciting local public opinion about names for other passageways: suggestion boxes are in place at Wood’s and Munday’s newsagents into which residents can gives their ideas for names. Maps showing the alleyways are also on display.<\/p>\n

Suggestions so far include ‘Chalcraft Walk’ for the path from eastern end of Aldborough Road to Newgate Road, and ‘North Star Passage’ or ‘Newgate Passage’ for the path running from the North Star pub to Newgate Road.<\/p>\n

Cllr Vivienne Bond has suggested that once a collection of proposed names has been gathered, articles in the local newsletters be run including the suggestions and appealing for further ideas.<\/p>\n

COMMENTS<\/span><\/strong>
\nVic Chalcraft<\/a>\u00a0writes (Dec 2006)\u00a0Dear Sir, what is this about Shornden Passage taking a hundred years to be recognised? [issue 42 \u2018Twitten named\u2019]. I knew it was named years ago and it is recorded in Kelly\u2019s Directory for 1950, and I suspect prior to that.\u00a0Vic Chalcraft, Aldborough Road.<\/p>\n

Edward Preston<\/a>\u00a0writes (Feb 2007) Dear Sir, Vic Chalcraft is right about Shornden Passage [issue 44, 16th December 2006]. I was going to write but Vic beat me. It was listed many decades before. I\u2019m not happy about inventing names; but the existing named twittens should be revived.\u00a0Edward Preston, Bohemia Road.<\/p>\n
