Te Ratonga Pou | Tapeta A-Rohe o Waikanae
9 Tiriti o Elizabeth, Waikanae
I 1841, i tīmata te ratonga poutāpeta tuatahi mā te huarahi takutai i waenganui i Pōneke me Wanganui i te hunga mau haere i te reta mā raro. Atu i 1847, nā te Pirihimana Mau Pū o Waikanae te mēra i mau haere. Nō muri mai ka whakatūwherangia e Thomas Wilson te Poutāpeta o Waikanae ki te Hōtera Ferry i te taha tonga o te awa. Atu i 1865, mau ai te ratonga kawe mēra me te pāhihi i waenganui i Pōneke me Wanganui.
I 1885, i whakatūwhera a Henry Walton i tētehi toa tauhokohoko me tētehi poutāpeta e tata ana ki te Ara o Walton, kāore e tawhiti atu i te wāhi i whakawhiti ai ngā ratonga kawe pāhihi i te awa o Waikanae, ā, mō tētehi wā i karangatia tēnei wāhi ko Waltonville. I muri mai o te whakatūwheratanga o te ara rerewhenua o Pōneke-Manawatū i 1886, i mutu ngā ratonga katoa.
I 1894 i nekehia te poutāpeta ki tētehi toa e pātata ana ki te ara rerewhenua. I āpitingia hoki he ratonga waea. Ko te whare e kite nei koutou i tēnei rā i whakatūwherangia i 1907, ā, i whakahaeretia tae noa ki 1982, ki te wā i whakatūwherangia ai tētehi poutāpeta hou ki Wāhi Mahara.
