Brief Description
The cadastral map of the Borough of Napier shows land lots, area sizes, streets, reserves around the Inner Harbour and the Western Spit. The Port Ahuriri lagoon adjoins Battery Road, Raglan Street and Bridge Street.
The Troopers Memorial to men who fought in the Boer War, erected in 1906, is shown on Marine Parade. The Garrison (drill) hall is located on Coote Road. [In correspondence dated 1910, chief surveyor C R Pollen confirms that this map shows the drill hall building in the wrong place].
The Flood Memorial stands on the corner of Marine Parade and Byron Street near the police station. The North British & Hawke's Bay Freezing Works are next to the channel entering the Inner Harbour.
