Toilet block adds to Mangawhai Historic Village facilities

30 March, 2022
 

Mangawhai Community Park’s new toilets were formally opened with a blessing at the Historic Village on Monday March 28.

The blessing was attended by those who worked on the project, Te Uri o Hau, and Councillor Anna Curnow, who is Chair of the Mangawhai Community Park Committee.

The toilets mean better facilities for visitors to the Mangawhai Historic Village, which features historic buildings from the area that have been restored for community and educational use. The materials and colours used on the exterior of the new facility are in keeping with the historic buildings in the village.

Funding for the toilets was provided by the Tourism Infrastructure Fund (TIF).

Council’s Mangawhai Community Park project team continues to work with organisations within the park on developing the space for locals and visitors to enjoy.
