The application concerns the entire length of the Ngaruroro River, the tributaries and hydraulically connected groundwater to the Lower Ngaruroro River, and the 7 kilometre (km) long Clive River. The applicants seek protection for a range of values through a number of conditions contained in the draft Order appended to the application.

    Heritage Trails FARNDON HERITAGE TRAIL Frimley-Waitangi Tangi a Te Ruru sculpture, Whakatu Photograph: Ivan Hughes Hawke’s Bay Discover New Zealand 1 FARNDON HERITAGE TRAIL Frimley-Waitangi Introduction: The Farndon Heritage Trail takes visitors through areas that have been historically associated with the orcharding and fruitgrowing industry in Hawke’s Bay, as well as some sites of Maori significance. The route touches the Ngaruroro River in several places. This river is significant for its numerous floods and their effect on the Hastings region in its past and more recent history. The name of the Farndon Trail is taken from one of the roads in the area and its related land and building features. Farndon is a village in England where the sweetheart of a young surveyor of this local region lived. This trail traverses 22.6km and can be driven or cycled. Cumulative mileage is noted in red. The Heritage Trail starts in Hastings at the intersection of St Aubyn Street, Frimley Road and Pakowhai Road. Park on Pakowhai Road outside Hastings Girls’ High School. 1. Hastings Girls’ High School (opened March 1956) Secondary education began in Hastings over a century ago on the site of the current Hastings Boys’ High School in Karamu Road. (See Hastings Urban Drive Heritage Trail brochure) Initially this school was co-educational but due to pressure of the post-war baby boom, by 1954, a new high school became necessary. As was the fashion then, the new school on Pakowhai Road was created for girls. It was built on Plaque and one of a pair of the windows from the Williams’ homestead in the Hastings Girls’ High School hall Don Trask 2 Section of the mural on the back wall of the Don Trask Hastings Girls’ High School hall the former Frimley Estate, owned by the pioneering (James Nelson) Williams family.
