The ​road​ was dedicated in 1849[1]. When Bohemia Road was widened in 1924, the last ​building​s associated with Bohemia Farm were demolished and the pond filled.[2] This road was renumbered during 1902. following the absorption of Shornden Terrace and a number of other similar terraces into the ​road​[3].
