Camerons Blockhouse and Marangai Homestead

This privately built timber blockhouse was constructed in 1868 when Titikowaru threatened Wanganui. It was one of a number of redoubts built on high ground in the district. To protect against bullets and fire, the walls were packed with clay.

The historic farmhouse on the next door property is operating as a BnB.
