Janey Grocott’s house in Mein Street was built for Henry Wright.
A descendant of Henry Charles Clarke Wright, the first owner of this Newtown, Wellington villa, which has just come onto the market, says research shows “for all his historical pomposity, he really was quite the scoundrel”. As

The new figures came as Reserve Bank Governor Adrian Orr said a new agency was needed to coordinate the response to the housing crisis and rebuffed Finance Minister Grant Robertson’s suggestion that it add house prices to its monetary policy remit.
