The
history of Warnervale
Albert Hamlyn Warner, after whom
both Warnervale and Hamlyn Terrace are named, was a
prominent landowner in the early 1900’s.
He was
probably one of the Wyong area’s most notable
residents. In 1893, Warner acquired 12,000 acres
of land, which he later subdivided and sold.
His family
home, ‘Hakone’,
which was built in 1912, is now part of the Strathavon
complex onthe banks of the Wyong River.
The home was named after
a park which the well travelled Warner saw on his
trips to Japan. Hakone Road, which borders the new
Town Centre
at Warnervale, is also named after the park.
