DESCRIPTION.
Kerepeehi Town is situated near the centre of the Hauraki
Plains, near the junction of the Awaiti Stream with the
Piako River. The road access is from Wharepoa Railway-
station, on the Thames line, a distance of seven miles-four
miles and a half metalled. Paeroa is also a point of access,
distant fourteen miles-nine miles metalled. Kerepeehi has
also a daily launch service with Thames, sixteen miles dis-
tant; and, in addition, steamers from Auckland discharge
cargo and passengers at the landing once a week. The land-
ing is about half a mile from the centre of the town. The
school building is situated less than three hundred yards from
the junction of Rata Street and the Kerepeehi-Turua Road.
The post and telegraph office is in the same building. There
is a tri-weekly mail-service, and direct telephonic communi-
cation with Thames.
The area covered by the township consists of slightly
undulating country near the Kerepeehi-Turua Road, whilst
further away it falls into the level plain that constitutes the
Hauraki Plains. All has been surface sown in English grasses,
but the hill portion has small scattered manuka in places.
The low-lying part is rich alluvial country, formerly covered
with manuka and cabbage-trees, of which the stumps re-
main. The country is in good grass with scattered rushes
and manuka.
Plans and full particulars may be obtained at this office.

DESCRIPTION.
The Kaihere Village is situated on the Hauraki Plains,
at the foothills lying to the west of the Piako River. Access
is by the Morrinsville-Waitakaruru Road, distant twenty-
nine miles from Morrinsville and fourteen miles from Wai-
takaruru. Access also from Ohinewai Railway-station on
the Main Trunk Railway, twenty-four miles distant. The
Ngarua Road, along which the village is situated, is under
construction towards the Piako River, five miles and a half
distant. When this road is completed access can be obtained
to Orchard and Kerepeehi. In the vicinity of the village thou-
sands of acres of swamp land have been drained, and are now
occupied. A school-site has been laid off, and a temporary
building is now occupied as a school. There is a post-office
and a store at Patetonga, five miles distant.
The sections in Blocks II and III are in rough feed, with
patches of manuka and scrub, whilst most of the sections
in Block I are covered with manuka, cabbage-trees, and rough
feed. The land is first-class near the Ngarua Creek, but
inferior near the Ngarua Road.
Plans and full particulars may be obtained at this office.
