Introduction
Mona Vale is a Victorian estate on the Avon River in Christchurch, bought and extended by businessman Frederick Waymouth in 1905 and now a city park. The house, rose gardens, wetland and lawns unfold along the river among old trees and ducks; punt rides cruise the Avon from here, and flower beds run through all seasons — one of the city's most elegant free attractions.
