Benjamin Lancaster, an absentee landowner with family connections to the Canterbury Association, purchased RS 62, which later became known as Lancaster Park. Lancaster took up the option of also buying town sections, and he chose TS 706 and 707, with the former being adjacent to Luck's TS 705. Luck leased those sections from Lancaster from November 1853, and thus controlled most of the north-west quadrant of the Square. After the lease to Luck expired, Charles Clark purchased TS 706 in 1876.
