Gnomeland is a bit of nonsense off to the side - a sylvan forest glade where gnomes and fairies abound, It was supposed to be to amuse little kids but old people like it as well.

Waiuta Sawmill - few photos survive of this ancillary industry (i got a good one from Les Wright - thanks Les). They basically clear-felled the native bush, put it through the mill and built the town etc. Thousands and thousands of feet of timber went down the mine for support props etc in the maze of tunnels underground.

Star Hotel (for the English village). This was based on an old coaching-inn in Portsmouth, England(i think). I put an extra storey on it to make it more impressive - because i can!


Okay - that's it. We did well to get this far.

Cheers
