Your Rolleston accommodation could be part of history

The town was originally intended to be railway terminus in 1866. The town is now the site of the railway junction between the Midland line to Greymouth and the Main South Line

It is named after the Canterbury statesman William Rolleston. Rolleston was born in Yorkshire in 1831 and died in 1903. He served as Superintendent of the Province of Canterbury from 1868 until 1876.
