Ridiculous! It ceased to be Perystrete maybe two centuries ago (it was definitely Perry Vale by 1843). The block of flats that thenutfield refers to was simply the result of someone plucking a nostalgic name from an old map. This was, and still is, a sometimes absurd way of choosing names for streets and flats.
