Waipukurau Parks & Reserves

A'Deane Park

2 Wallace Road, Waipukurau

A'Deane is a small recreational park for the Waipukurau community located on the corner of Wallace & Porangahau Road. A traditional park with all amenities.

A'Deane Park was gifted to the Waipukurau Borough Council in 1922 by Mr J B A'Deane of 'Ashcott" as a memorial to his late mother Mrs M.L. A'Deane. Mr A'Deane's idea was that the land could be used for public gardens and at a later date for a public building if required. In 2008 the park was upgraded with help from J B A'Deane's grand-daughter Ngaire A'Deane Tollemache Jackson and his great grand-children Alison & Ngaianne Jackson.
