Summary

Description

Ninety-two years after the battle at Te Pōrere, where the last pitched battle of the New Zealand Wars took place in 1869, the battlefield – including the main redoubt and two outposts – was declared a reserve under the National Historic Places Trust. Climbing a track through the scrub to where the redoubt stands is the Governor-General Lord Cobham, followed by Ormond Wilson, chairman of the National Historic Places Trust. Leading the main group is the Reverend W.N.Panapa, Bishop of Aotearoa, who dedicated a memorial stone to the fallen followers of Te Kooti Arikirangi Te Turuki buried within the redoubt. The unveiling took place on 18 February 1961.
