How is there no page for this yet. I'll assist given a good source. Mdavidbaird (talk) 00:09, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Neighbourhood or park?

[edit]

If this page is going to be about the neighbourhood, the category should be Category:Neighbourhoods in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador instead of Category:Parks in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. Regarding page naming, please see and comment on Wikipedia talk:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board/Style guide#Neighbourhoods. The consensus seems to be to use Neighbourghood, City. If it's about a park, Place (City) would work. --Qyd (talk) 21:18, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Does Image:Signal Hill St John's NF 2.jpg depict this place? --Qyd (talk) 21:28, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It certainly does! Excellent! I will add it right now. Mdavidbaird (talk) 13:56, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I cant find a citation for the anti-submarine boom, or pertaining to Chain Rock. As these are somewhat popular parts of St. Johns history, they are verifiable - but I cant seem to verify them. Id someone has a link, please add, if not. I will take a look at Memorial University to see if the library contains any information on this. Mdavidbaird (talk) 15:00, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anderson House?

[edit]

I didn't think that Signal Hill Road was included in the Battery? Or for that matter the beginning section of Battery Road. Rwood128 (talk) 20:40, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Further research suggests that Anderson House and Signal Hill Road are actually within the Hoylestown neighborhood. Rwood128 (talk) 21:37, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Avalanches & rockfalls

[edit]

There must, surely, have been incidents in the nineteenth-century and earlier. Rwood128 (talk) 20:19, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
