Plans "Daysh Cottage" 884 High St LHutt [now demolished]
Said to be an 'Historic Property' which is what we knew as 'Daysh Cottage' at 884 High St has now been removed and thankfully taken to Wairarapa to be renovated.
HCC Archives Plans of the Cottage [corner High and Daysh once Cottle St roundabout] show that in 1948 - Welsford the Chemist - renovated the cottage while giving his work address 868 High St, as a contact.
Closest history is that Daysh sold to Cottle 1900 and he in turn sold the land for 23 sections in Park Ave suburb.
