A Norfolk pine, with roots believed to stretch back to New Zealand Governor General Sir George Grey, is on the chopping block and residents are desperately trying to prove its historical value to save it.

A protest erupted at the seaside town of Snells Beach in north Auckland on August 21 when contractors arrived to chop down the tree, believed to have been gifted to James Snell by Sir George and planted at the northern end of Snells Beach between 1854 and 1870.

Developer Vavasour Investments was granted an unnotified resource consent by Auckland Council to remove the tree as it wasn't considered desirable for its 33-home Boathouse Bay bach style living development.

Do you think the tree should be saved?

Free Massage Chair

Bevan from Warkworth

I have an old massage chair that is free to anyone. It still works, even though the leg massager is loose. Heavy and bulky, but a godsend at the end of a long day or after a hot bath. *** Taken. Thanks ***
