The third of three structures built on this site. The original hut, located adjacent to the current hut, was built in the 1940's by a Mr Henderson & a culling friend. It was known as 'Lake Hut' & when it collapsed, it was replaced by a comfortable open fire-placed bivvy, which in turn, was replaced by this, the current structure. Information from Don Cowlin, hunter & later Field Officer, for the North Westland deer culling blocks. The open fire was replaced with a woodburner that sits inside the open fire chimney. Edit Hut
