Wallowing about Wallaceville
The Breeze radio station morning show are creating a song about Wallaceville and want people to send in suggestions of things that are famous, infamous (I suppose), interesting, unique, or just plain and simple about Wallaceville.
Have you got something that might suit?
Don't mix in what actually lies in Trentham or the rest of Upper Hutt.
The new Wallaceville Railway Station is a feature and with an increasing importance, fish and chips etc takeaway shop Scoops is back alive and kicking after a year burnt and gutted, Quinn's Post has a history and an association with the Trentham Racecourse going back to the heyday of NZ horse racing.
Are there any very notable/prominent people who lived or live in Wallaceville?
