Iam unsure but I will find out how it gotits name.What I do know was that the locals nicknamed it Round Dreading Road when the cemetary opened I think in 1865 as it was the main route for the funeral parties going there.Its a lovely road with gorgeous big old grey and red sandstone Victorian Villas with mature gardens.If you scout around for old photos of the town you will find some I am sure,sorry I can't be of more help.
