Containing a stand of Kahikatea (designated a Significant Natural Area) this project daylighted a piped water course and created a pond area to replenish the moisture levels to the stand. A series of board walks were created around the stream and within the Kahikatea stand to protect the root system and provide dry access across the natural marsh land. The wider banks were replanted with range of riparian sedges and grasses to rehabilitate the site.

As part of the interpretation of the site a number of bespoke shelters were created, replicating the floor area of the original labour missionary housing, providing an opportunity for reflection and include different levels of interpretation, some explicitly telling their story, while others explore the nature of shelter and reward more attentive observation.
