SEVENTY descendants of<br />

Samuel Manson, who was<br />

known as “head of the bay”,<br />

recently gathered at the stone<br />

cottage in Orton Bradley<br />

Park to celebrate their ancestor.<br />

Samuel Manson, who<br />

was believed to be the first<br />

carpenter in Christchurch,<br />

built the original cottage<br />

in 1848. After a seven-year<br />

restoration process following<br />

the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake, the cottage<br />

reopened its doors to the<br />

public in May.<br />

Great great grandson<br />

of Samuel, Max Manson,<br />

presented a portrait of the<br />

carpenter to the Orton<br />

Bradley Park Board<br />

chairman Simon Mortlock.<br />

Mr Manson spoke of the<br />

pride which the Mansons<br />

have in the history of<br />

pioneers in the family. That<br />

also included Jean Manson,<br />

who mothered 17 children.<br />

Mr Manson also paid<br />

tribute to his cousin Janet<br />

O’Loughlan, who organised<br />

the day with her niece,<br />

Robyn Cody, printed a<br />

booklet y and organised<br />

displays of old photographs<br />

and other memorabilia in the<br />

old school house.<br />

PRIDE: Janet Loughlan, Max Manson, Simon Martin and Robyn Cody presented of the<br />

portrait of Samuel Manson to the Orton Bradley Park Board.<br />

This permanent material two bedroom unit has been thoroughly and thoughtfully renovated to a high standard,<br />

maximising its durability, flexibility and charm. The open plan dining and living room connect to a lawn and patio<br />

area that is both sheltered and sunny - a perfect place to entertain in or relax and read a book. The well planned<br />

landscaping has provided well defined areas with space for a spa bath, veggie garden and BBQ area if those<br />

features tickle your fancy. The newly appointment kitchen cleverly connects to the living room allowing you to<br />

chatter with guests or connect with the garden views whilst preparing meals. The bathroom is sumptuously tiled<br />

and both this and the kitchen have been furnished with underfloor heating ensuring toasty toes in the winter time. A<br />

garage with an automatic door adds to the functionality of this wee gem.<br />
