UNIQUE OTAGO BOLLARDS
Named after Brigadier General Sir Henry Montgomery Lawrence, who died in the Siege of Lucknow in 1857, the sleepy Central Otago town ofLawrence is just over an hour’s drive from Dunedin. It came into existence when gold was found in Gabriels Gully 4km (2.4 miles) away. While some people stop in Lawrence on the drive from Dunedin to Central Otago’s popular holiday towns, most drive straight through as there was little to see or do. When I was a Dunedin based TV cameraman I frequently drove through Lawrence on filming trips to Queenstown and Wanaka. I do remember one occasion when the road to Dunedin was closed due to flooding and we spent a night in the town’s only hotel. Other guests were there for the same reason. By eight o’clock the town had gone to sleep.
