A lovely day was spent at Terrace Station on Sunday 16th April 2023. Thank you to all involved, especially our host Kate for showing us around her home and for giving us an enjoyable and informative talk.
Photos have been sent in by Lois for you all to see.
Terrace Station is a heritage landmark in Hororata. It was the home of Sir John Hall, runholder, politician and reformer with his wife Lady Rose Hall and is still lived in today by his descendants. The property dates from the 1850’s.
The Hutch, a one-time summer house of the 1930s, is now a display area for some interesting historical items as well as information about the property.

I, Kate, really enjoyed hosting members of the Canterbury Pilgrims group, who were already knowledgeable about some of the history of this place.
