| A potted history: Wyett house was built in 1856 for Greytown's first Doctor, Dr J Smith. The northern two storeys were added in 1872. Corrugated iron now covers the original wooden roofing shingles. Formerly the property was named "The Willows". Two old willows survive at the rear. The large elm on the southern side was planted in 1859. The front fence was an early flood protection measure from 1860's and 1870's when the Waiohine River often flooded the town. Maiden sisters the Misses Wyett, ran a "Seminary for Young ladies" at the house - a finishing school for daughters of local gentry in the 1880's. |
