TWW Comment

Near the Kawhia turnoff on the Otorohanga/Pirongia State Highway 39 is a side road, Cannons Road which is a no exit road. Just before the end of this dead-end road, across a cultivated field, there stands a central monument, that reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN MEMORY OF PIONEER WORKERS AT TE KOPUA METHODIST MISSION ESTABLISHED MAY 1841 REV. & MRS THOMAS BUDDLE REV. & MRS GEORGE BUTTLE REV. & MRS ALEXANDER REID". see: http://www.methodist.org.nz/files/docs/wesley%20historical/waikato%20wesleyan%20missions.pdf see: https://digitalnz.org/records/30078184
