Lingard, G P, fl 1910s? :Runanga coal mine and Mt Cook. [1905-1920?]
Date: 1905 - 1920
By: Lingard, E P, active 1910s?
Reference: G-102
Description: Shows a view from a road in the foreground that leads down to a small settlement consisting of a row of huts beside a building that may be the opening to a mine. A railway truck is in the centre foreground, on a line leading to the opening. The settlement is in a valley with low hills and higher mountains in the background. Some of the trees in the valley are turning autumn colours. The picture is dated 1861 with an inscription in a later hand on the backing board. However Runanga was planned as a model town for miners in around 1901. The land was subdivided into leasehold sites in 1903-04, and timber was milled locally to build houses. It is possible that the town in the picture is not Runanga. Despite the title, the snow-clad mountain in the background is not Mount Cook and is likely to be the hills at the south end of the Paparoa Range.
