Description

Craiglockhart was built in 1890 for Charles John Monro and was situated on a property of fifty-one acres across the river from Palmerston North. The house was named after the Monro's county estate in Scotland. Mary Monro is in the trap in the middle distance. The house under construction on the left is 'Wharerata', which was built in 1901 for Mr & Mrs Arthur Russell. Both Craiglockhart and Wharerata are now owned by Massey University.
