[15 APR 2012] : 20°C SUNDAY

[SUBURB | KAWAU ISLAND] - PART 3

NOTES:
*
Kawau Island is an island in the Hauraki Gulf. At its closest point it lies 1.4 km (0.87 mi) off the coast of the North Auckland Peninsula.
*
Mansion House in the Kawau Island Historic Reserve is an important historic tourist attraction.
*
Almost every property on the Island relies on direct access to the sea. There are only two short roads serving settlements at Schoolhouse Bay and South Cove, and most people have private wharves for access to their front door steps.
*
Copper was mined on the island after discovery in the 1842, in the first years of European ownership. With imported miners and their families from Wales and Cornwall, the mining settlement finally reached a maximum of around 300 people, before problems with shipping and mine flooding (despite the construction of a pumphouse) closed the mine again in 1855.
*
The island was bought a few years later by Sir George Grey, Governor of New Zealand, in 1862 as a private retreat. Grey extended the original copper mine manager's house (built 1845) to create the Mansion House, which still stands, and made the surrounding land into a botanical and zoological park, importing many plants and animals.
*
The island is home to kiwi and two thirds of the entire population of North Island weka.
