'Cluny Park' was built in 1893 by Hobner Brothers for William Manson on the subdivision of his brother John’s estate. The outstanding feature of the homestead was the turret or belvedere on its roof, which was removed by Mr Carson between 1924 – 1926. Cluny Park was also owned for a time by George Matthew Snelson, the first Mayor of Palmerston North.
