Restoration work
Between March - October 2025 the Monmouth Redoubt was restored to ensure public access and so that generations to come can appreciation he site’s history and importance.. This work included stabilising the redoubt walls and adding a new timber boardwalk around the eastern side of the redoubt. The boardwalk provides a short, shaded nature walk for people accessing the historic site, or going between The Strand and Robbins Park or the Cliff Road carpark area.
The restoration and upgrades were identified in a conservation report, which also guided how archaeological, cultural and historic features would be protected throughout the onsite work. Local hapū Ngāi Tamarāwaho, Ngāti Tapu, and Ngāi Tukairangi were involved in developing the report and throughout the restoration process alongside input from the Tauranga Historical Society, Heritage NZ and The Elms.
