When Pitt Shone & Wood divided the Park into their individual ownerships; William Shone acquired plots 18 - 22 as shown in the 1857 layout plan. All these were plots on the eastern side of the outer circle. This was the first William Shone who never lived in the Park himself. By the 1872 OS survey there was still no property development on these plots except for the glasshouses on plot 18. The boundary was tree lined and plot 19 established with an orchard.

By 1881 the large double property (now nos: 66 &68) had been built with son William now 33yrs in residence with his wife Grace, their baby son William and a few years later baby daughter Grace. The OS surveys all indicate the house as a double but only the southern side (no:66) had a stable/coachhouse block and the early records only record the one household. This William Shone (the 2nd) was an estate agent and he acquired the double property (nos: 23/25) on plot 30 in 1893. It appears that when he sold plot 30 with its property he also sold the vacant plot 22 with it. The Shone estate based on plots 18,19,20,21 this remained the largest estate within the Park for many years. William (the 2nd) died in 1911 and although his son William (the 3rd) took on interests in other Park property; the Shone family had left the Park by 1921.

The grounds were extensive and featured a magnificent friuting walnut tree.

By 1921 the Shone estate had passed to Brookhirst Switchgear a large industrial company based in Chester. Company records have not revealed how they used the property.

On 12 November 1926 Brookhirst sold the estate to AWS Furley with a mortgage from William Shone (the 3rd). He soon sold off plot 18 to Gardner of Grange House (no:76) and c1930 developed plot 21 with a single property (no:64) demolishing the stable/coachhouse block. He later sold off plot 19 for building development in 1933.
