McNamara Street

From The Orange Wiki

An old pioneer, Mr. B. McNamara, is identified with the street of that name. At one time he owned Lords Place, from the Hotel Canobolas corner, and owned extensive property besides, including the Campdale estate. In 1850 he moved to Condobolin and Forbes and owned the first inns in those townships.

Originally the street extended from Kite Street to Summer Street and the street north of Summer was known as Curran Street. The area from Byng Street to Kite Street is now known as McNamara Street.
