More information : (NZ 262121) A hall in Garth Field, Stapleton, was demolished about 1820. In 1879 a local inhabitant pointed out to Chetwynd-Stapylton its position and a fish pond or moat at the back (see plan with NZ 21 SE 38). He described the building as very large and substantial "more like a castle than a house", with 5 or 6 ft thick walls. The building was L-shaped with a chapel at the north end. (1)
