Massey Agricultural College was opened in 1928. This photograph looks across Riverbank Road in Fitzherbert towards the campus on the old McHardy property. Centre can be seen the Main Science building, with the Refectory to the left and 'Wharerata', still owned by the Russell family, to the right. In the foreground are the training and experimental farmlands on the 'Batchelar flats', the original site of the College.
