    Apparently these concrete pillars were installed in World War 2 to stop Japanese tanks from landing in Raglan and moving inland. Because this was one of the only roads in an out of Hamilton.
    Next tag shouldn't be too hard to find, if you zoom in on the sign. Its also within 500m of SH1.

    Well done. Yes they are tank traps on Old Mountain Road, near Te Pahu/Waitetuna.

    They have large slots down the road facing side which apparently could have barriers inserted to stop any vehicles coming through.

    Edit: Gravel is required to get to this tag, it is a maintained gravel road though quite windy in places.

    NZ would've been the only country that would think a plank of 6 x 2 across a road was ever going to stop a tank!!! Today, they would put road cones in place.


    Anyone got an idea where the new tag is?

    Or control + if you don't have a rodent strapped to your computer. Control - makes it smaller and control 0 makes it normal size.
