Barton's Bush
|
Barton's Bush, in Trentham Memorial Park, is the largest remaining area of virgin bush (rainforest) in the Hutt Valley of New Zealand. Named after Richard Barton who settled in the area in 1841, it was his desire that this section of the native forest should remain whilst the city of Upper Hutt gradually took shape and land was cleared for farming and settling.Template:NZ-geo-stub
