Description

Development began on the Victoria Esplanade in Palmerston North, named to mark Queen Victoria's 60th jubilee, in 1897. A small trout hatchery, run by a branch of the Acclimatization Society, was established at the gardens in its early days. The six tanks on the ground are filled with fingerlings about to be released into the Manawatu River. Men identified as Mr Tom Rickard, who worked for H Brougham carriers, and Mr Gerald H Weir, who was in charge of supervising the fingerlings. The Palmerston North City Council moved that the hatchery pond be filled in, in 1927 (PNCC Minute Book, 1 August 1927).
