Whangamarino Redoubt - Whangamarino Walkway

After the first fighting of the Waikato campaign in July 1863, the British advanced. They then built the Whangamarino Redoubt to command the south end of the ridge. It was used to bombard at long range with 4.75 inch Armstrong guns the strong Maori position atMeremere. Nearby are the older earthworks of the Te TeoTeo pa. The walkway takes in these historic sites.
