Early Wellington

Fig. 148.—Percy's Mill at Pito-one, 1851–1929. This mill, on the west side of the Hutt Road (near the ramp over Waterloo railway line), has never received a coat of paint since it was built in 1851. The “mill” was used for the earliest concerts and dances besides its ordinary purposes. At the extreme left may be seen the stump of the giant oak tree planted from an acorn on the Hutt River bank in 1843, transplanted later on, and re-transplanted successfully in 1926
