Tamaterau Reserve, or is it Devonshire Park?

The Team from Whangarei District Council

Do you recognise this place? What do you call it?

Tamaterau beach and reserve has a rich cultural history dating back 700 - 800 years. In 1928 it was named Tamaterau Domain before being classified as a recreation reserve in 1953 and renamed as Tamaterau Domain Recreation Reserve.

Do you recognise this place? What do you call it?

Tamaterau beach and reserve has a rich cultural history dating back 700 - 800 years. In 1928 it was named Tamaterau Domain before being classified as a recreation reserve in 1953 and renamed as Tamaterau Domain Recreation Reserve.

In 1980, its name was formally changed to "Devonshire Park" in recognition of Charlie Devonshire, a local teacher who played a role in ecologically restoring the reserve.

Some members of the community and representatives of the local hapū have now requested it be renamed as "Te Whenua Tāpui o Tamaterau", which translates to Tamaterau Reserve.

They feel the reference of Devonshire in the current name does not reflect the long history of the area, as it highlights only one person's contribution over a short period of time.

The new Council will consider the name change after the election - please send your feedback through this link by 4:00pm on Tuesday 18 October 2022.
