Recently we
arranged a
permanent
monument
to these
painters on
the original
site of Pumpkin Cottage at
Silverstream. It was here
that many talented
Wellington artists painted
and sketched under the
initial leadership of James
Nairn.

"The internet
lists more
than a
thousand
hypertufa
sites which is
a pretty
good barometer of the form’s
popularity.
www.efildoog-nz.com offers
plenty of examples of
hypertufa work, with
pictures, background and the
history of hypertufa,
including a well researched
material and tool list and
hypertufa recipes.
This is about
Jock Atkins.
Our old
roadman
who did a
great job on
the
Akatarawa Road for half a
century. His rewards were
not great. I thought it would
be nice to put this up so he
is not entirely forgotten
