Ruapuke Pa
Ruapuke Pa submitted by theantiquariansociety2 : Raglan Standing Stone , on top of a Maori Pa, near Ruapuke, North Island NZ (Vote or comment on this photo)
Standing Stone in New Zealand. A single standing stone situated on an old Maori Pa (Hill Fort) near Raglan on the West coast, North Island, New Zealand. Legend has it that the stone used to whistle in the wind and warn fishermen of approaching storms. This magnificent stone is on private land but access is possible with the help of local knowledge.
