Greenwoods Corner

Greenwoods Corner shopping village is made up of a collection of small enterprises: restaurants, cafés, and retail businesses.

The Greenwood family kept the homestead for 110 years, a significant period of time considering Auckland's short history as a city.

Southern Epsom was rural at the time of the first homestead of Greenwoods Corner and was characterized by green fields and grazing cattle.

Dr John Logan Campbell purchased 1,000 acre suburban farm located at Maungakiekie in September 1853, which he renamed One Tree Hill.

[7] Dr Campbell made his name through different business enterprises and his political life, serving on more than 40 committees, boards, trusts or directorates over the space of five decades.

The visit prompted Campbell to donate part of his estate, 230 acres of One Tree Hill, to the nation and calling this Cornwall Park in honour of the future king.
