Christchurch Central City

Edgeware is a suburb of Christchurch, New Zealand, to the north of the central city. It is centred on a cluster of some 20 shops that make up Edgeware Village on Edgeware Road near Colombo Street's northern end.[3]

Edgeware received national attention in the news in June 2006, when an out-of-control party on Edgeware Road resulted in the deaths of two schoolgirls.[4]
