This report was prepared in conjunction with Greater Wellington Regional Council, in order to provide information on the history of Baring Head and an assessment of its heritage values using the criteria of the Historic Places Act 1993. The report identifies features of heritage significance and sets out evidence to support the assessment of heritage values within the historical context.

The report will be used to inform Greater Wellington Regional Council’s decision-making regarding management of the site. It will also inform a possible future registration of a Baring Head Historic Area by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust.
