Canterbury is about 2600 people per square kilometre. Standard installation, standard method, and a fault usually found inside the first hour. At around 70 metres, Canterbury is level, with reliable supply, which means an RCD that will not reset is telling you about an appliance.
At about 10 kilometres from the CBD, Canterbury has plaster and lath that makes tracing a cable slow and careful work. For Canterbury, Boroondara has no role here. The standard is the wiring rules and the relevant Australian Standard, not a planning scheme.
Canterbury borders Balwyn and Camberwell. If we are in one of them, we are minutes from you. Postcode 3126, about 3 square kilometres, 7800 residents at the 2021 census: that is the shape of Canterbury inside Boroondara.
For what it is worth on site: In 1900 Snowden's estate was subdivided and sold off to form what is now Monomeath Avenue and residents such as notable architect Percey Kernot and prominent citizen George Coghill moved in. Housing age shapes where previous work was done and how. We are across Canterbury along with Balwyn, Camberwell, Hawthorn East and Kew East, on the same rates and the same certificate.
Boronia is our base, roughly 18.7 kilometres west of Canterbury. Short distances like that are why we can commit to a time and keep it. A further note on how the streets came to be: == History ==
The railway station is in many ways responsible for the suburb's existence: before the opening of the railway to the City in 1882, the area was a semi-rural area.
And on the history that shaped the streets: The first subdivision in the area came in 1885, when Michael Logan created the 'Claremont Park Estate' within the area of Canterbury Road, Bryson Street, Prospect Hill Road and Logan Street.
