As there is no obvious visual clue as to where this might be, is it possible to give us a bit of a cryptic clue without giving it away? (a bit like Blackdog's "Square Mountain" for "Box Hill" a couple of posts back). Just something to get our brains working overtime to work out where this might be cause at the moment it's got nothing.

What gave it away for me was the broken windows on a large building on the very right of your picture. There is only one building in the hutt which looks like that, the old railway workshops. From there it was pretty obvious which building this was by looking for the distinctive roof in Google Earth.

The location does appear in sv, but it doesn't give a clear view of the signage unfortunately, I just checked.

Cloggy
12th October 2011, 16:59
I think I've sussed it, but it might have to wait till the morning. The sign is a big clue of roughly where it is, but then there are many possible locations. If still there in the morning I might go and have a look before heading to work.

Cloggy

I've found a possible location, it's got a fence, it's got the low height metal barrier but it doens't appear to have the green shed. Could be just the angle on SV though. Only a ground reconnaissance mission will confirm or deny the existence of the tag.

Clue: The street this is on also has a school on it.

Third and hopefully final clue for those who need it. This Link (http://www.huttcity.govt.nz/Documents/maps/Tracks-and-trails.pdf?epslanguage=en)Shows a map of all entrances to walking/mountain bike tracks in the Hutt valley.

2nd clue: was Cloggy needs to be looking closer to his backyard.

1st clue was: the street Generically speaking, (it could be a Avenue/Close/ Grove/ Road/ street etc) this is on also has a school.

Cloggy
17th October 2011, 16:26
Finally,
At the end of Lees Grove in Wainuiomata.
Street view won't show it, and from an aerial view you would not pick it (I didn't anyway).
I didn't know there was entrance to the school of Lees Grove. I knew there was a school in that vicinity but always thought it came of Hay Street. Not being a regular to those parts of the Nui didn't help either.
Initially I was looking for this tag on the other side of the park around Eastbourne.
