    I started with a web search too and there are a surprising number of war memorials around the place!

    Be warned: The image on Google Maps is quite different. Must've changed recently.

    Now you would have thought that was a very clever tag given it's just been constructed.... But you'd be wrong

    I only knew it instantly because a friend of mine posted a shot of it on her FB page the day after you tagged it - pointing out how new it was!



    Got to say the view into Auckland is amazing the camera doesn't do it justice.



    That btw is not the new tag!

    Location is the Pukekohe Hill reserve.

    OK, here we go. Bit unsure about this one. It may draw blanks, but it's worth putting up if for no other reason than to pay tribute to the original owner who had the testicles to build it! I have a backup tag if this one is too tricky.

    Found it, it wasn't too hard with a bit of a google thanks to the owner renting it out. Not sure when I will have the time to actually grab it though so if anyone else gets there first

    Was that for circumference swimming rather than linear laps?

    I say swim with quotes because I never did manage to learn how. To say any more might give it away.
