Kemp House and the Stone Store

It was now time for more site seeing in the local area and we decided on Kemp House and the Stone store which are two of New Zealand's oldest buildings in the Kerikeri Basin. Kemp House and the Stone Store are the only survivors from the Church Missionary Society's second Anglican mission to New Zealand, founded in 1819 on land granted to the Reverend Samuel Marsden by the powerful Nga Puhi chief, Hongi Hika. Kemp House is the oldest surviving European building in New Zealand.

The Stone Store is the country's oldest surviving stone building. The Stone Store was really interesting it had heaps of old toys and things to purchase.Leer más
