Practically nothing remains to-day to mark the site of the engagement at Te Ranga. In an open field on the farm — of Mr W. Merrick the trenches lie covered. This view was taken from where the trenches evidently lie, on the edge — of a steep bank looking out in the direction in which the native survivors fled. — Photography by R. J. Smith. A.R.P.S
