NEW PLYMOUTH IN THE VICINITY OF MT. ELIOT (where fee railway station is now situated), taken from F. A. Carrington’s survey map of 1842. It will be noted that the Mangaotuku Stream was then an open stream from Queen Street to the Huatoki. Queen Street beyond the Mangaotuku was then entirely unsurveyed, and Queen Street only partly surveyed, Brougham Street also terminating at the Mangaotuku. Ariki, Egmond, Chilman (Rangi) and St. Aubyn Streets were not then projected. The site marked A was granted for the purposes of a library, but was subsequently diverted by the borough and harbour board to other purposes. (See Dr. S. C. Allen’s historical series in to-day’s supplement, in which constant reference has been and will be made to the site marked A.)
