29 Medway Street, Waikaka, Gore
The original name for Gore is Hokonui and now the town goes by both names despite the rest of New Zealand delighting in the way that Scots-heritage Southlanders role the R in Gore.
Meanwhile Gore, proud of it's heritage, has set up a grrreat local information complex named the Hokonui Heritage Centre, which specialises in trout fishing memorabilia as well as a display on costuming. The Heritage centre also incorporates the Hokonui Moonshine Museum which celebrates Southland's very own answer to prohibition, and quite a tasty drop it is reported to be, and still being sold here.
The Moonshine movement in Hokonui/Gore is such that it has bloomed into a biannual whiskey and music festival in Gore.
