7 7 Reserve Details Legal Description Lot No. Awahou 97B Plan No. ML 4989 Area ha. Classification Physical Location Ihakara Gardens is located at the north end of Main Street and is bounded by roads on two sides Main Street to its south and Park Street on its east side. The Gardens are located at the north end of Foxton s commercial district. A map of the Reserve can be found in Appendix 1. Adjoining Land Uses The north side of Ihakara Gardens backs onto the fields of Foxton Primary School. The southern and eastern sides of the gardens are bounded by Main Street and Park Street respectively. A vacant grassed section, which is relatively flat adjoins the Gardens on the western boundary.
8 8 History Ihakara Gardens as it known today is one of the earliest commemorated places where Maori and Pakeha lie buried together. The eldest marked grave in Ihakara Gardens today dates back to 1850 but it is probable that the first burials took place several years prior to this date. The individual graves which lie within the gardens are a visible link with the early history of Manawatu, while the site as a whole symbolises the foundation of peace which has been laid between Maori and Pakeha in this district. The Raukawa people sold the Awahou Block of land (some 37,000 acres) to the Crown and in the Wellington Provincial Government subdivided the land for Pakeha settlement and laid out the township of Foxton. Among the pieces of land excluded from the sale to the Crown was the cemetery reserve at Te Awahou (1 acre and 5 perches in size), which subsequently became know as Section 97 of the Township of Foxton. This was used as the public cemetery of the new township for several years, with land remaining in Maori ownership, under the name of Ihakara (Issac) Tukumara (the chief of Ngati Ngarongo). Ihakara Tukumara died 18 Jan 1881 and was buried there in 1881 despite the Foxton Burial Prevention Act 1871, which prohibited any further burials on this land. By 1900, the cemetery had fallen into disuse and its long grass dilapidated fences and straggly pines presented an untidy appearance to the northern end of the towns commercial centre. After several years of negotiations the Maori landowners of the land agreed in 1919 to gift the eastern portion of the site (Section 97b) to the Foxton Borough Council, while the western (97A) portion was sold to the Wanganui Education Board in 1927 as a site for the Foxton District High School. The western portion of the Reserve appears to never have been used for burials and was occupied by a house for several years.
9 9 Section 97B (2 roods and 21 perches) was given the name Ihakara Gardens by the Foxton Borough Council who became the legal owners in However the cost of improving the site was met by the Foxton Beautifying Society which conducted a public fundraising campaign and raised sufficient money to place concrete markers on all identifiable graves and to landscape the area with a concrete fence, steps, paths, lawn and ornamental shrubs. The Beautification society were responsible for reshaping the site to form the hill we have today. The Maori people who gifted Ihakara Gardens to the Council were 3 women; Te Aputa Ihakara (Mrs Uruoteao Eparaima - Foxton), Karaitiana Te Ahu also known as Ngaret (Mrs Hone McMillan Koputaroa) and Rangiahuta (Mrs Pateka Winiata) of Otaki who were all related to Ihakara Tukumara. The Foxton Historical Society took the initiative in organising restoration work and in 1979 the graves were repaired at a cost of approximately $1,500. Much of this cost was met by the proceeds of a public appeal, which included donations from both Maori and Pakeha. The existing plaque records the gift of Ihakara gardens to the citizens of Foxton by the three ladies. The new plaque was executed by Mr P.H. Dibble (Palmerston North) and includes a representation of the head of Ihakara and draws attention to Ihakara Tukumara and the burial ground of Te Awahou. In March 1983 a new plaque was taken to Paranui marae, Foxton and was formally presented and blessed. Arrangements were made for the plaque to be attached to the Garden s gateway. This was unveiled by Mayor Mr J.L. Titcombe on the 1 May Taken from Ihakara Gardens, the story of Foxton s oldest cemetery. Publication compiled by I.R. Matheson and D.J. Lundy, 1983.
10 10 Reserve Features Ihakara Gardens is on the corner of a busy intersection which has a triangular war memorial traffic island located in the middle of it. Due to the close proximity to the town centre the Gardens have very good access for pedestrians and vehicles with parking close by. The view from the grassy sloping hill at Ihakara Gardens looks directly south along Main street to the Water tower in Seaview Gardens. A low concrete fence surrounds the majority of the Reserve with an empty grass section next to it. Ihakara Gardens has a number of headstones and graves at the foot of a small grassed hill, which has a set of concrete steps leading to the top. A concrete path travels almost around the perimeter of the hill but stops before the top. On top of the hill two park benches are located to enjoy the view of Main Street. A Maori carving and commemorative plaques are over the entrance which leads to the gardens. The site includes a rubbish bin and wooden bench at the entrance and concrete path, which takes people around the graves and perfume garden. Users The Gardens are no longer used for burials although the graves and headstones of some of those buried there still remain. The site is a well patronised by the locals and visitors alike for a place to sit, relax, have lunch and enjoy the views of Main Street and the commercial district.
11 11 Public Comments Most people are aware that Council does not own the western section but still it was maintained (mowed) from Council s maintenance budget, the land owners should approached about this. Would like to see the Gardens retain their open appearance, perhaps some more larger trees could be planted. The wheelchair path could be finished off so that wheelchairs have access to the top. A paving stone area at the top would complement the site with some suggestions of a gazebo or pergola to be at the end of the steps. As the concrete steps do need some maintenance it could be combined as one project. By planting two large specimen trees (or similar natives) at the top of this hill the visual appearance of the gardens could be enhanced. The benefits of this would be that the large trees at the back of the property would give a good balanced look from Main Street without taking up too much space on the hill. The trees would also provide some shade for visitors while they eat their lunches or enjoy the views. Perfume gardens are a good step in the right direction. Need to avoid blocking off any views from the top of the hill The gardens could become part of a Main Street renovation plan which could see trees and plants line the centre of the road to Seaview Gardens creating a stronger link. Keep any development or design of the Gardens simple, a structure in such a prominent position will require a very high standard of maintenance.
12 12 Management Issues Issue Effect Maintenance Western corner site maintained by Council despite not be owned by Council High profile area needs to be maintained to a high standard Concrete path and steps deteriorating, overall appearance lets the Reserve down Lichen growth on the concrete wall is creating a very aged look Vegetation Trees find it difficult to grow due to dry conditions Preventative measures need to be taken to stop new plants being stolen Vegetation that blocks visibility attracts and encourages inappropriate behaviour Overhanging trees cast shade on the graves, which increases the amount of algae growth Graffiti Prime visible spot for tagging Additional costs of cleaning it up and trying to deter taggers Design Potential for various styles to occur important to be consistent
13 13 Objectives 1. Recognise the importance of the site culturally and historically. 2. Ensure that the Gardens remain attractive and reflect the local environment and historic nature of the Gardens. 3. Provide an open, safe and litter free environment, which allows convenient access for users. 4. Encourage the use of the Gardens for passive activities, which are in keeping with cemetery setting. 5. Strengthen the overall design and appearance of the town by linking reserves and common designs together. Action Points The gardens seem to need a feature on top of the hill, as it is a cemetery it may not be appropriate to use picnic tables, investigate and consult to find suitable feature(s). Ensure that nearby reserves such as the River Loop and Seaview Gardens are linked through design, signage and/or walkways. Investigate the possibility of Council acquiring the land so that it can be retained as open space or incorporated in any development of the Gardens. If no such action is possible Council may need to look at ceasing to maintain the corner site. Encourage additional planting around the intersection to help reduce speed and prevent cars cutting the corner as well as overcoming the vast tarseal view. Ensure that any further development, design or planting is in keeping with the Reserve and Main Street. Ensure rubbish bins in Ihakara Gardens are of a consistent design to those on Main Street. If a feature is to be placed at the top of the hill, ensure that the concrete path and steps are fixed so that they makes it to the top of the hill. Investigate whether the community want the stone wall to remain covered in lichen or whether it should be removed. Ensure that bark is used to control weed growth and appearance of the Perfume Gardens.
