81 Church Street, Onehunga, Auckland
Onehunga means landing place in Maori and has a rich history of both Maori and Pakeha settlement and trade.
The Onehunga Heritage Walk visits a variety of early colonial-era buildings including settlers cottages built in the 1850s, a defensive blockhouse built to protect Auckland during the Land Wars of the 1860s, and an assortment of early hotels, churches and factories. Be sure to visit the Pump House, built in 1888, which still provides crystal clear spring water to Onehunga residents. The walk takes about four hours. Get the map here.
