A must see. A lovely tribute to race and a person. Way out on the very edge of Chatham Island a visit is well worth it.
I found I was drawn back when I left and certainly felt the mystic.

Great to go to Tommy,s memorial with one of his descendants and hear the human stories, behind it. They are looking at ways to repair /replace the statue, we thought later that if they copied the statue in concrete and had the face made in bronze, it might last longer.

In itself, this is a cement statue of Tommy looking out to see from a fenced enclosure on the Solomon Estate (farm). You need a history or a guide to understand the full significance but the scenic road trip out from Waitangi to this site (almost the eastern end of NZ) is still a “must do”
