Puketoi Station

Puketoi Station , the property of Mr. Watson Shennan, of Conical Hills Station, contains 60,000 acres, of which about 2000 acres are freehold. The property carries from 20,000 to 23,000 Merino sheep and about 100 head of cattle, together with the horses required on the station. In some seasons several hundreds of acres are in root and grain crops. The Puketoi station was originally occupied about 1860 by Mr. William Murison, who disposed of his interest to the present proprietor about three years later.
