Hi, I just came across your blog. That’s quite a funny picture! Some years ago I lived in Auckland for 6 mths, felt gutted when hubby told me we had to move away. Anyway, reading your blog makes me miss NZ….

Comment on The Stone Store across the Kerikeri bason. by Martin Pavey

The Stone Store bridge was removed by the council to reduce the possibility of flooding damaging the Stone Store, which is the oldest stone building in NZ, and the Mission House. In heavy rain, plenty of trees and large debris used to wash down the river, and get lodged under the bridge, thus causing a dam, and the flooding risk.

A new heritage bypass was built to enable the removal of the bridge and the return of the Kerikeri basin to what it was like when the Stone Store was first built back in the 1830’s. Plans are afoot to make this a World Heritage Site.

In true Kiwi style, a footbridge, to allow visitors to cross the river from the car park, is still not yet finished.
