WELCOME TO DEVONPORT Your Devonport experience most likely begins on the ferry ride over from Auckland, passing the Navy base and catching your first glimpse of the volcanic cones of Mt Victoria and, further along, North Head.Either will offer you incredible 360-degree views of Auckland, the North Shore, Rangitoto Island and the Hauraki Gulf. But our mountains are just the start of what Devonport has to

offer. We’ve created this guide to help you enjoy all of it. In Destination Devonport you’ll find maps and guides to help direct you around the village, as well as further afield, to the beaches and other attractions on the Devonport peninsula. Our guide is full of all the mustvisit places, shops, restaurants, bars, cafes, museums and galleries in this very special village by the sea.

VISITOR INFORMATION CENTRE The Devonport Visitor Information Centre is run by local volunteers. About 25 passionate Devonport residents opened the centre in April 2017 for the World Masters Games, which drew thousands of visitors to Auckland.

“And then we just never closed,” said the volunteer coordinator at the time. “It’s the Devonport way. Locals are passionate about sharing what they know about the place. “Devonport has a long history of community service, and this

time they wanted to make sure visitors had the best tourist experience possible.” The centre is in “The Arcade”, opposite our award-winning architectually-designed library on Victoria Road. 15 Victoria Rd, ph 09 666 0119 PAGE 3

TOP TEN PICKS

Soak up Devonport’s Victorian heritage with a stroll up and down the main drag. There are some bargains to be had. Then grab a coffee at one of the many great coffee stops in town or linger for a long, lazy lunch..

Watch the boats and harbour life from the top of North Head, the ‘poor man’s helicopter’.

Then keep your cool in the wonderful tunnels at the summit of North Head. The kids will love shouting and hiding in the rabbit warren of old Navy tunnels

Food & Drink guide p32-35 Retail & Shopping p40-43

4 Cool down with a jump off Torpedo Bay or Stanley Bay wharf.

Head up to Devonport’s other ‘mountain’, Mt Victoria. Another great panoramic view of Auckland and if you’re too tired on the way down, hop on a piece of cardboard, like the locals! If you’re lucky, there might be one of the famous folk music concerts in the bunker.

Take your pick for dinner with any number of the great dining options in the village. Devonport has a huge range of options, to cater for any diner! Have a look at our Food & Drink guide on page 32-35.

DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

Take on the ‘Aucklander’, the biggest ice cream at Devonport Scoops or White’s Dairy.

After a visit to the Navy Museum, at Torpedo Bay, you can learn more about the history of the village at the Devonport Museum, on the way to Vauxhall shops (page 36).

See the Devonport map on pages 24-25 for directions.

After a day of sightseeing in the village, sit down at one of the pavement cafes on the high street for a well-earned drink. The Patriot Pub is where it’s at. Choice bro! See page 33.

9 Watching the sun set behind the Harbour Bridge is one of the best sights on a sunny evening. Head to Fish Kitchen on the wharf for the best views.

HOW TO GET AROUND

You can also use public buses that are on a regular schedule.

Download AT’s “Local” app to get your local shuttle. Other options are pedal bikes or e-bikes, which can be hired from the wharf.

You will also find share-riding services provided by Uber or Auckland Transport.

Segway Tours and Devonport Tours offer guided tours of Devonport, see pages 26-27.

Walking is your best option in Devonport. Everything is within close proximity.

DEVONPORT ON A STOP WATCH TWO HOURS IN DEVONPORT If you’re visiting Devonport for a good time, not a long time, the best way to start your adventure is with a coffee. There are numerous options on the main street; Correlli’s, Manuka,Vondels or The Living Room all on Victoria Road. Then make the short stroll up to Mt Victoria and take in the views over Auckland, and check out the iconic red and white mushrooms. When you’re finished wandering the mountain, head down to Cheltenham for a scoop of gelato from Cheltenham Milk Bar. Kick off your shoes and head to Cheltenham Beach while you’re there. Don’t forget to stop by Vauxhall Vintage and find yourself a unique treasure to take home with you.

HALF A DAY IN DEVONPORT Head down King Edward Pde and enjoy the walk along the waterfront towards Torpedo Bay Wharf. Take a rest along the way to admire the spectacular views over the harbour. Once you get to Torpedo Bay, make sure you walk right out to the edge of the wharf for a great view. If you’ve got your swimsuit, and are a confident swimmer, you can even jump off the wharf for a dip. The Navy Museum is located here and entry is free. North Head, Devonport’s historic coastal-defence site, is a five-minute walk away – and definitely worth your time. Take the looping track from the base to the top, where along the way you will find tunnels to explore (bring a flashlight if you’re not confident in the dark) and gun emplacements. Follow steps down the side of the mountain and find North Head’s little spot of bliss, its own hidden beach and back along Cheltenham Beach. By now you’ve surely walked up a sweat – so time to treat yourself to something deliciouns at the Vauxhall shop cafes, see page 36.

A FULL DAY IN DEVONPORT If you’re lucky enough to have a whole day to spend in Devonport, you won’t be disappointed. Every good day starts with coffee, and you won’t find better than Chiasso on Wynyard St. Their cold brew, which has been lovingly slow dripped for 6 hours, is not to be missed on a hot day. On your way up to Mt Victoria stop in for some retail therapy along Victoria Rd, see pages 40-43. After city gazing from on top of the mountain, head towards Church St where you will find Cambria Reserve. A scenic stroll through the reserve will reveal one of Devonport’s hidden gems – the Devonport Museum. This volunteer-run museum is filled with historical treasures and loads of hands-on activities such as a piano, a typewriter, skittles and even a small cinema. If, by this point, your stomach is starting to grumble the answer to your problems lies just down the road. Chateaubriant is a small French cafe located in Cheltenham, filled with yummy treats that will make your eyes (and your stomach) light up, or opposite is Cheltenham Milk Bar or Vauxhall Road cafe – popular spots for the locals. Grab a selection of goodies to take away and head to Cheltenham Beach to enjoy them with one of the best views in Devonport – of the unmistakable Rangitoto Island. Before the sun goes down, make your way back to the main village and into the beer garden at The Patriot for a cold brew and to soak up the final rays of the day. Last but not least, get cosy in front of an evening movie at The Vic vintage theatre. Don’t forget a large box of butter popcorn!

HISTORY OF DEVONPORT Devonport is one of Auckland’s most historic suburbs, with European settlement dating from the mid-1800s. Maori settlement goes back much further, to around the mid-14th century. Three small local mountains were Maori pa sites (fortified villages). With the arrival of Pakeha settlers, Devonport became an important farming and shipbuilding centre – the dry dock at the naval base (now privately owned) is still in use today.

Devonport Beach, circa 1912 Devonport was named after the Devonport naval base in England and the Royal New Zealand Navy still contributes significantly to the flavour and prosperity of the local community. The harbour occupies a special place in the hearts of Devonport people. Two of New Zealand’s best-known yachties – Bruce Farr and the late Sir Peter Blake – are local lads, and Sir Peter Blake was a member of the local yacht club for many years. The Coastal Classic yacht race officially begins just beyond Devonport Wharf every year, with many Farr-designed yachts entering. North Head is riddled with military tunnels, connecting bunkers and empty gun emplacements. DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

Rumours still abound of mysterious tunnels that are long forgotten. Devonport was originally an island, joined to the mainland by a narrow causeway which is still known as Narrow Neck Beach. Fort Takapuna, with its underground fort constructed in the late 19th century to repel the Russians, lies just beyond this beach. The original centre of Devonport was based at the bottom of Church St, where boatbuilding and the former Masonic Tavern were located. By the early 1900s, the centre of town shifted to where it is now, largely due to its proximity to Devonport Wharf and Auckland. For more than 100 years, Devonport was an independently governed borough. After a major battle with the government, Devonport was forced in 1989 to become part of a newly created North Shore City. North Shore City itself was incorporated into the newly created Auckland Council in 2010. Devonport’s independent spirit remains to this day, with many fights against government and bureaucracy. Famously, locals took the government to court in the late 1990s over plans to sell off a tract of Defence land at Narrow Neck. The residents won, and this area

Victoria Road, circa 1915 – a large grassy area up from the beach – is now a park. Devonport has a remarkable collection of late 19th-century villas, some of them very grand indeed. By the 1970s, many of the villas had become dilapidated and some were being pulled down to make way for flats. In the 1980s, a heritage movement was established to protect the old buildings. This coincided with gentrification sweeping Auckland’s

Victoria Road, circa 1910 inner-city suburbs. As a result, many villas were saved and lovingly restored. You’ll see them both in the village and on the walks around the township, brought back to their original elegance and surrounded by beautiful gardens.

FUN FACTS

The Moreton Bay fig tree next to the public library is fondly known as ‘Old Albert’ (planted from a seedling via Albert Park in Auckland city). It was planted in 1883 and is also known as an Australian Banyan tree.

The metal musical notes on the band rotunda in Windsor Reserve represent bars of ‘God Save The Queen’, but are wrongly sequenced.

The Esplanade Hotel (built 1902 - 03) is one of the oldest on the North Shore and the bar still exists in its original position in the hotel.

SOME FAMOUS RESIDENTS Dame Sister Mary Leo, who trained Dames Kiri Te Kanawa and Malvina Major, was a registered pupil at St Leo’s Primary School (from 1905-1906). Other celebrities who have resided in Devonport include musicians Gin Wigmore (singer), Tim Finn (Split Enz frontman), Anika Moa (singer), Lorde (singer) and Temuera Morrison (actor).

The new $7.8 million Devonport Library, designed by Athfield Architects, opened in February 2015, to replace the original 1953 building. Our library houses a $100,000 silk curtain designed by artist Judy Millar. See beautiful harbour views from the mezzanine floor.

The bubonic plague scare in 1900 prompted the Devonport Council to mount a campaign offering free rat poison to encourage the slaughter of rats, and included a bounty for each dead rat.

Lorde is the youngest New Zealander to have won an international Grammy award. She grew up in Devonport and attended Belmont Intermediate School and Takapuna Grammar.

The top of Mt Victoria features mushroom-shaped vents which are connected to the underground water reservoir.

DEVONPORT FIRSTS Devonport featured prominently in the lead-up to women winning the right to vote in 1893.

First suburb on the North Shore to get electricity, when the Devonport Power Station was built in 1914 - 1915.

Flagstaff was the name originally bestowed upon Devonport. Victoria and Albert Rds were named after Queen Victoria and her husband Albert. Edward Street (now Calliope Rd) and Clarence St were named after their children.

Cheltenham Beach has had several name changes over the years: White Beach, Rangitoto Beach and Cobley’s Beach. The gardeners who worked on Mr Cobley’s Devonport estate originally came from Cheltenham Gardens, London. The idea of building a kiosk on the beachfront was first raised in 1909 amid public controversy. The kiosk has evolved from tearooms in its early years, to a popular venue for many a fine wedding, ball, or social event. In 2013 it celebrated its centenary.

First recycling depot in New Zealand opened (1977).

First borough in New Zealand to vote to become nuclear-free (1981).

The first Land Scout Troop was formed here in 1908, only a few years after the movement was founded in England.

BEST BEACHES ‘Welcome to the maritime suburb’, says Devonport’s entrance sign – and for good reason! For one, it is the home of the Royal New Zealand Navy. You may well see naval uniforms around the village, and if you come to Devonport by ferry, you might see navy vessels moored at the HMNZ Philomel base.

NARROW NECK BEACH Devonport is also home to two sailing clubs. Wakatere Boating Club is where local kids learn to sail so well that some have become Olympians. Local sailor Paul Snow-Hansen sailed in Rio and London, and board sailor Tom Ashley won gold in Beijing.

views of Rangitoto that Devonport has to offer. At the North end of the beach is McHughs restaurant, which is over 100 years old and a popular spot for weddings. The restaurant offers buffet lunches on certain days of the week. From the end of Cheltenham Beach you can walk the stairs that lead to North Head. Once you get to the top, look behind you for a spectacular view back over the beach and Rangitoto.

If you are keen to have a more casual dip while visiting, you are spoilt for choice. Beaches extend from Stanley Bay to Devonport village, Torpedo Bay, Cheltenham and Narrow Neck. (Most beaches are tidal, but Narrow Neck offers swimming in all tides.

SEA SWIMMING

The Devonport Yacht Club, along the waterfront towards North Head, is one of the oldest in the country. Its most famous member was America’s Cup campaign leader Sir Peter Blake. The club offers meals on Friday nights.

CHELTENHAM BEACH At the base of Maungauika/North Head lies Cheltenham Beach, a long stretch of golden sand and calm water. This spot is a favourite among locals for swimming, walks and lazing in the sunshine. From here you have one of the best DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

The Waitemata waters around the Devonport peninsula are also popular with sea-swimmers. The local swim club runs two ocean swim events each year: the Round North Head Swim in November to open the season, and the Cheltenham Swim in April to close it. Friendly sea-swimming groups leave Narrow Neck beach early most weekend mornings.

We recommend putting your finger in the air first to see where the wind is coming from, then heading to a beach sheltered from either the prevailing southwesterly or less common northeasterly.

BEST FISHING SPOTS Devonport has three popular fishing spots. From east to west: Torpedo Bay wharf; the central Victoria Wharf; and Stanley Bay Wharf. Fishing gear can be purchased at Devonport Hammer Hardware, should the urge to fish hit you unexpectedly.

PICNIC SPOTS BEST PICNIC SPOTS Another way to enjoy the sea is simply to look at it, maybe while having a picnic at one of our many vantage points. North Head and Mt Victoria are two of the best. You can find a quiet and windless spot on their slopes any day and time. Nice spots can be found all along the waterfront as well, especially near the yacht club. Wharf-jumping at Torpedo Bay and Stanley Bay is popular amongst teenagers, but banned at Devonport Wharf.

Cheltenham and Narrow Neck are perfect for a morning coffee or lunch, with a view of Rangitoto, though both get a bit shady and cooler than expected in the evenings. Devonport has a maritime history going back to the 1300s, when the Tainui waka is said to have landed at Torpedo Bay, an event commemorated by a stone memorial on the foreshore.

THE GRAFITTI ART TRAIL A gallery of residents art has popped up around Devonport streets in recent years. Most works were commissioned by the Devonport Arts Festival in 2014 or 2017, others have been added by local artists independently.

PARKS & PLAYGROUNDS WINDSOR RESERVE

DEVONPORT DOMAIN

CHELTENHAM BEACH

This is a playground with a billion-dollar view, overlooking Torpedo Bay and back towards Auckland City. The playground shares its grounds with the North Shore Cricket Club, so there is plenty of grass to kick a ball or throw a frisbee. It’s also a five minute walk from Cheltenham Beach.

Need we say more? This modest playground is steps away from one of Devonport’s best beaches, complete with great views of Rangitoto Island. No doubt you’ll see paddleboarders and windsurfers going past. Too hot? Just around the corner is Cheltenham Milk Bar, which serves delicious gelato and milkshakes.

BALMAIN RESERVE

NARROW NECK BEACH

WOODALL PARK

Located about half-way down Cheltenham Beach, this reserve is an institution among locals as THE picnic/fish and chips spot. Bema Fish and Chips are located a couple of minutes away on Vauxhall Rd. Bonus: You’re allowed to drink alcohol on Cheltenham Beach from 7am until 10pm in the summer months (October until April).

Another playground located on one of our beautiful beaches, Narrow Neck is home to a small but entertaining playground with a beautiful view. It’s also right next door to the beach cafe which sells all the kiwi necessities including pies, hot chips and ice creams.

Not enough room for the kids to run around at the Narrow Neck playground? Pop across the road to Woodall Park, a massive stretch of grassy field, perfect for a family game of cricket or soccer. There is also a volleyball net set up in the corner of the park.

Located on Victoria Rd, next to Devonport Beach, this playground is undergoing a $1 million rebuild. The new design resembles a the Bean Rock lighthouse in the Waitemata Harbour. It is due to be open this summer.

DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

PARKS & PLAYGROUNDS CAMBRIA RESERVE

ALLENBY RESERVE

WICKLOW RESERVE

This little gem is tucked away at the back of the Devonport Museum, down a one-way street. Its winding concrete paths and landscaped gardens make it the perfect spot for a little adventure. The reserve sits in the remains of Mt Cambria volcano, which was a quarry for scoria rock between 1883 and 1985.

Located next to the Waitemata Golf Club, this playground is usually quieter and less crowded than a lot of the others. You can walk from here to Cheltenham Beach in about five minutes.

Also slightly more off the beaten track, this reserve hosts a pirate ship-shaped playground the kids are bound to enjoy exploring. The reserve also has lovely benches and a picnic table, a great spot to take a packed lunch. Wicklow Reserve is a five to 10-minute stroll from Narrow Neck Beach.

SKATE PARK

MELROSE RESERVE

RAINY DAY OPTIONS

Whether you have a skateboard in tow or not, this is an iconic part of Devonport to check out. Located across Lake Rd from the Waitemata Golf Course, and a 10-minute walk from Narrow Neck, the skate park also has a lovely little walk around the outskirts overlooking the mangroves.

This charming reserve is tucked away in a quiet part of the village and is nestled amongst charming villas. There are plenty of trees that provide a nice shady spot to spend the afternoon. Here, you will be located in Devonport’s sister suburb Stanley Pt.

Rainy day? Don’t panic, there are still plenty of indoor options to keep the kids entertained. Both the Devonport Museum and the Navy Museum have plenty of interactive toys and games to be enjoyed. Alternatively, check out what’s on at The Victoria Theatre; built in 1912 this is Southern Hemispere’s oldest operating purpose-built cinema. PAGE 11

DEVONPORT WALK #1

The Esplanade Hotel, 1 Victoria Rd

There has been a hotel on this site since the 1860s when the original Flagstaff Hotel was established. The Esplanade was opened in 1903. Continue walking up the left-hand side of Victoria Rd until you reach the former post office / council chambers at 3 Victoria Rd.

5-19 Victoria Rd, Oliver Mays Building / The Arcade

VICTORIA ROAD WALK Start at the Ferry Terminal and walk across the road to the Esplanade Hotel. The establishment of a commercial area on lower Victoria Rd was prompted by a ferry service connecting Devonport with the city and the development of a wharf and hotel at the foot of the streeet in the 1860s. By the 1880s, Victoria Rd had become the leading commercial centre of the North Shore. By the 1920s, the western side of Victoria Rd was lined with fine Victorian and Edwardian commercial premises. Today Victoria Rd has one of the most intact collections of Victorian and Edwardian commercial buildings in Auckland. Several of these buildings have been listed by Heritage New Zealand and the Auckland Council. Sponsored by Devonport Rotary at the heart of your community www.devonportrotary.co.nz

APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

This impressive row of two-storey shop buildings was built around 1880. The building features a charming arcade through its centre, with displays relating to various aspects of Devonport’s history, as well as some fantastic little shops and the Devonport Visitor Centre. Cross the road at the first pedestrian crossing to the bronze statue.

War Memorial

Unveiled in 1923, the Devonport War Memorial was one of a large number of memorials erected to the war dead after the First World War. They served as surrogate tombs for the families and friends of the many thousands of men and women who died in the conflict and were buried in foreign lands. The bronze figure known as the ‘untidy soldier’ is unusual for its formality and realism. Windsor Reserve & Devonport library

Carry on up Victoria Rd passing the library on your right. You will come to a small section of park, Windsor Reserve. Over the years it has been adorned with a band rotunda, a library and several memorials including the South African War Memorial (1899 - 1902). Centre stage is Devonport’s magnificent Moreton Bay fig tree - also known as an Australian Banyan tree - which was planted in 1883.

DEVONPORT WALK #2

The flagpole and survey plaque, Windsor Reserve

Once a visual shipping signal station, the flagpole was moved from Mt Victoria in 1957 to mark the site of the birthplace of the New Zealand Navy. In the 1840s naval vessels had stores and repair depots in the area. It is also one of the many areas along the foreshore where Maori canoes landed in 1350.

Commemorative Sea Wall, Windsor Reserve

WATERFRONT WALK Start from Devonport Wharf and walk east through Windsor Reserve, towards King Edward Parade along the waterfront. King Edward Parade stretches along the foreshore from Devonport Wharf to North Head. During the early 19th century, a commercial centre was developed, beginning with the Masonic Hotel and various boat-building facilities (including Logan, Bailey Holmes and Beddoes). By 1914, King Edward Parade was graced with a string of residential buildings and those houses certainly have stunning views, not only of the harbour but of the the city’s eastern beaches and the central business district of Auckland.

APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

Begun in 1902 and completed in 1929, the scoria and concrete commemorative sea wall was erected to mark the coronation of Edward VII.

Elizabeth House, 5 King Edward Parade

Formerly the Ventnor Private Hotel, the present building was erected in 1911. It had 50 guest rooms and an impressive dining room. The hotel catered for holidaymakers until WWII when it was requisitioned by the Defence Department. After the war the building was renamed Elizabeth House and used by the Navy to accommodate the WRENS - Women’s Royal NZ Naval Service. The Navy vacated in 1991 and the building is now private residence.

Devonport Yacht Club (DYC), King Edward Parade

Carry on down King Edward Parade on the seaward side, looking at the distinctive black lava flows that are visible beyond the sea wall at low tide. These are from the eruption of Mt Victoria many years ago. Founded in 1905 and considered one of New Zealand’s most respected yacht clubs, the clubhouse was originally the waiting shed on the old Victoria Wharf. The yard is usually full of colour as numerous boats wait to be painted and repaired.

Torpedo Bay end of the parade Named after the torpedo boats that berthed at the Naval Wharf in 1886. And Takapuna was the name of a spring which formerly flowed from the base of Maungauika/ North Head. It was named by the commander of the Tainui canoe after a spring in the Society Islands. Takapuna became the Maori name for the wider Devonport area.

DEVONPORT WALK #3

North Head / Maungauika

North Head played an important role in defence plans for the Auckland Harbour from the 1880s when it was fortified as part of the defence system established in response to fears of a Russian attack. Between 1888 and 1914 prisoners were incarcerated at North Head where they were put to work digging a network of tunnels that link the defence facilities.

CHELTENHAM TO FORT TAKAPUNA

The North Head tunnels

From Torpedo Bay, walk north along Cheltenham Rd turn right at Takuranga Rd, follow directions to Manugauika/North Head Military lookouts were established on North Head and Fort Takapuna because of their extensive views of the harbour. With volcanic soil for farming, plus attractive beaches, it became an enviable retreat. Vauxhall Gardens were created in the 1860s, and the swamp west of Wairoa Rd drained to create a racecourse (now a golf course). Devonport’s residential development increased because of fine beaches, proximity to its own commercial centre and ferry transport to the city. Sponsored by Devonport Rotary at the heart of your community www.devonportrotary.co.nz

APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

There has been much speculation that historic aircraft were hidden inside sealed tunnels. In spite of extensive exploration their existence has never been confirmed

McHugh’s, 46 Cheltenham Rd

After exploring North Head, walk back to Cheltenham Rd and turn right At the end of this road you will find McHugh’s. Originally the Cheltenham Tea Kiosk, it opened in 1913. It provided changing rooms and a large tea room for beachgoers. Now a popular reception lounge.

Cheltenham Beach

Continue walking to the northern end of the beach, to the children’s playground. Public concern over the depletion of shellfish beds on Cheltenham Beach came to a head in the early 1990s. Initial results were alarming and led to the formation of Cheltenham Beach Caretakers who pushed for a ban on shellfish harvesting. With the support of local Maori, the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, and other local groups, the ban was put in place in 1993 and shellfish samples continue to be collected to track progress.

Waitemata Golf Club Built on a former swamp, it was reclaimed in the 1870s and the Takapuna Racecourse was established on the site, which it shared with the Waitemata Golf Club (where the golf course had been in the centre of the race track). The shape of the racecourse can still be seen in the layout of the current golf course, and the Jockeys’ Changing Rooms are now the Devonport Croquet Club premises.

Fort Takapuna Vauxhall Rd At the end of Cheltenham Beach, turn left by the playground, through Bath St, and turn right into Vauxhall Rd.

The fort was equipped with two six-inch guns and living accommodation for the gunners stationed there. After the First World War the fort was abandoned.

The Vauxhall Shops, Vauxhall Rd Head towards Narrow Neck Beach, then cross the road into Wairoa Rd. Turn left into Grove Rd, then turn right into Vauxhall Rd. In the 1920s a small set of shops arose at the intersection of Vauxhall Rd and Tainui Rd to serve the growing Cheltenham Beach community. Now it’s a busy hub of eateries, and interesting shops. Turn left into Tainui Rd, then right into Cheltenham Rd and end this walk at Torpedo Bay.

Fort Takapuna Historic Reserve Vauxhall Rd This reserve encompasses one of a number of forts overlooking New Zealand’s major harbour built as a result of the Russian threat in the 1880s. The New Zealand Army had a military hospital on this land in the 1930s, which later became a maternity facility. The site was converted to a naval accommodation precinct, before the houses were removed in the 1990s and a reserve created. The Officers’ Mess, scene of many formal naval functions, has been restored, as have the nearby barracks.

DEVONPORT WALK #4

The Devonport Domain

This was originally a swamp that was developed into a park in the 1880s, and used by the Tennis Club before becoming home to other sports such as the Devonport and Masonic cricket clubs. The cricket club recently celebrated its 150th anniversary and is one of the oldest in New Zealand.

Holy Trinity Church 18-30 Church St

NEIGHBOURHOOD WALK From Torpedo Bay, Cheltenham Rd, walk west across the Domain towards Cambridge Terrace & Domain St The inland area of Devonport gradually evolved from a farming locale to a residential area. Volcanic cones that once provided fertile soil also supplied stone for roadmaking and building; Mt Cambria and Duderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hill were quarried away during early European occupation. Community facilities were established, including places of worship built in Church St and Albert Rd. Large landholdings were subdivided into smaller sites, so gradually residential development could expand inland during the 19th and 20th centuries. Sponsored by Devonport Rotary at the heart of your community www.devonportrotary.co.nz

APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR DESTINATION DEVONPORT 2020

Exit the Domain onto Cambridge Tce, then turn left into Domain St. Then turn left onto Vauxhall Rd/Church St to the Anglican church of Holy Trinity. It is a magnificent example of a wooden church with exquisite stained-glass windows. Designed by Edward Bartley.

47 Church St

This was built by the Electricity Supply Corporation in 1915 as a coal-fired power station, and provided the first electricity supply for Devonport. In the 1930s, it was used to house Depression relief workers, and was converted to apartments in the 1980s.

Mt Cambria Reserve & Devonport Museum

Cross Church St and enter Mt Cambria Reserve, via the path just past 48 Church St. The museum is on the far side of the reserve, down some steps. Mt Cambria Reserve Takararo

Mt Cambria was a 30m-high volcanic cone that was formed around 20,000 years ago, and destroyed by quarrying in the 19th century. It was named by a syndicate of Welsh miners who purchased it in 1874. Cambria is a traditional name for Wales and was also the name the miners gave to their Coromandel goldmine. See page 30 for info on the Devonport Museum.

Masonic Hall 145 Victoria Rd This former Masonic Lodge building dates back to 1901 when it was erected as the first purposebuilt home of the local Lodge Albion. The lodge had been established at Devonport in 1882 by Devonport members of city-based lodges. A decade after it was opened, extensions were made to the building with a social hall being added.

Mt Victoria cemetery Albert Rd Once back on Church St, continue walking north. Turn left onto Albert Rd and continue walking straight ahead (keep Mt Victoria on your left) .This part of the lower slopes of Mt Victoria was set aside as a burial ground in 1854 for the early settlers to the area. It also contains the grave of Ngapuhi leader and Government adviser Eruera Maihi Patuone, who lived in Devonport in the 1850s until his death in 1872.

History podcast delves into Devonport’s past A heritage podcast brings to life stories of prominent Devonport buildings and a cast of local identities. The community project coordinated by Devonport Business Association was launched in October. Historian David Verran wrote the background content from which a script was developed. Heritage advocate Margot McRae narrates the audio; with heritage architect Jeremy Salmond discussing architecture; former Esplanade owner Grant Gillon talks about the

historic hotel; Anne Iremonger, a former owner of businesses The Dresser and Clarrys, giving some commercial history; and cinema enthusiast Murray Thompson taking listeners back to the days of Benwells (the original owners of The Vic) and the old State Theatres. The Devonport Business Association has commissioned Devonport Museum to produce six bronze heritage plaques to be placed on notable commercial buildings. “These can be read in isolation, or will be used as touchstones on the

audio journey.” “It’s been a real community collaboration and we’re excited about being able to produce a fabulous self-led heritage tour for Devonport’s visitors, locals and even students in our local schools to learn more about the place they call home,” the Business Asscoiation Manager said. The audio tour is around 90 minutes long. Long term it may be the first in a series of walking-tour audios. To get the podcast go to: www.visitdevonport.co.nz/ devonport-audio-tour

First opened in 2004, in the historic Bank of New Zealand building, The Patriot offers unique spaces from which to enjoy its many local and international beers plus wines. It is a popular destination for both local and international visitors well known for its easy going hospitality and good sized quality meals.

Every Friday night, they have a live band playing till late, and also have a DJ night once monthly which is becoming very popular with the younger and student populations.

The function room/pool room upstairs has already been renovated which is also a very sunny spot to check out the street or watch international sporting events on the large TV. They also screen most of the major sport events of their large projector in the main bar.
