In attempting to prevent this Education Board house being damaged should an overhanging branch break and fall on the roof it was decided to employ a Palmerston North contractor to trim the macrocarpas seen on left of picture. Well you can guess the rest… the very thing happened that the trimming was supposed to prevent. Fortunately no-one was in the house when the branch fell and little damage was done to the sun-room interior or the furniture but structural damage to the corner of the house, which is on the Ohakune- Raetihi Road, was considerable.
