"Balfour Street was named after Walter and Jean Balfour who lived here in the 1920s, but it was also known as the Pelham Stone Road. Just around the corner on Canboro Road to the east, is an apartment building which was once a church. Shortly after it was built, the two Methodist churches in Fenwick were united, and this church was sold." A Historical Tour of Fenwick. Pelham Historical Society. 2003.
