|
Two small bush remnants of pukatea-kahikatea swamp forest; excellent examples of lowland bush with nikau palms, totara, kahikatea, pukatea, and tawa providing a good combination of trees for attracting birds including kereru and tui. The stream also provides a wetland area where raupo is available and numerous waterfowl can still be found today. This site was once a part of the Te Horo pa site and is a known urupa and would have been used as a resource garden being known to contain large clumps of kiekie which were used for tukutuku panels(Ryan, A., 2021).
