Has anyone got a photo of the beach side of Revell Street from the late 60s to mid 70s just to see how far out the water was in them days. I remember having to wade thru the lupins to get out tothe actual water.

Greg Mait The tree in our back yard was small then, it’s still there the last time I was in Hokitika. I remember my mother chasing me around it 25 years after that photo for pinching smokes out of her bag! Dot Marshall’s tearooms on the left, Ramsey’s … See more

Greg Mait
Peter Curtain Hi Pete yeah I remember Gordon Ramsey , He used to play the organ in one of the bands. I also remember Dave getting his arse kicked when he grabbed one of Bills axes an we took it down the beach to whack into a few logs . Brilliant days.

Trish Barry Andrews
Helen Hutchison no that is Weld Lane. Prestons Drapery on the North side of that and the where the Bank of NSW and Hokitika Savings Bank would later be built and that is about as far as the photo goes. Unfortunately The Southland or our Butcher shop are not in it. Baz.
