He pārongo atu anōBack Issues: Heritage at risk: Saving Foxton's former courthouse

Description: Local historians weekly "Back Issues" article in the Manawatū Standard. History of Foxton's former courthouse building, corner of Main Street and Avenue Road. In 1863 Ihākara Tukumaru, chief of Ngāti Raukawa's Ngāti Ngarongo hapu, gifted the site to the Crown, as "a site for a courthouse and General Government Station". Foxton's first courthouse was built there in 1869. Its replacement opened on the same site in September 1929 and served as a courthouse until January 1971. The building was then used as Foxton's police station until 1974. Thereafter it became a volunteer run museum.
In recent years, work on the building has focussed on earthquake strengthening and preservation.
