Rangitoto Island

The gun emplacements for two 12pounder guns was built in 1940 near the mine depot, with the guns being emplaced in 1941. A new site at Bastion Point was chosen later that year and the emplacements at Rangitoto were abandoned.

On the summit was a Fire Commanders post, built in 1938, but not fitted out till 1941. A mine depot was built on the south east shore.

The whole Island is a reserve and these sites are publicly accessible.
