Thames (NZ): Part of the Past NZ History Blog

A new link has been added today, for a highly informative blog featuring many articles related to the Coromandel Peninsula.

Part of the Past NZ History Blog by Anne, covers New Zealand history, including the Coromandel Peninsula. The latest post is on the Queen of Beauty Mine in Thames.

There is an earlier post on the Thames Waikato Railway.

If anyone knows of any other blogs or similar related to the greater Thames area, please let me know.
