A MAORI TRENCH
I live on a farm in Teddington, about half a mile from the school. My father owns Tableland, also Mount Herbert, the highest peak on Banks Peninsula.
“Mount Herbert and Tableland -from just outside our gate” In the very early days there was a small Maori pa on Tableland, and my father has seen the remains of a Maori trench up the hillside there.
