Looking down upon The Village in the year 1946. The outlook encompasses Moores Valley Road, Main Road, and various intersecting streets. The Wainuiomata River and landmarks such as the Main Road Bridge and Wainuiomata Primary School are visible. It seems the vantage point was recently scorched, likely facilitating the photographer’s access.
