Ka Puketuroto …..   The Inland Hills

Tin Range …..   Tin was discovered as a by product of Gold Prospecting, initially by Louis Longuet in 1882, but not actually confirmed until identified by Professor Black in 1888.

The area of tin bearing soils was centered on this range of hills, with a drive put in at the south end.

Kowhai Lane is "Grid Tied" and exports excess electricity to the local grid.
