Description

Shows Narrow Neck beach, in Devonport, from the south end. A wooden fence and a rudimentary hut can be seen in the foreground, with a mangrove swamp just inland behind it. A road can be seen winding up from the beach; this might be what is now Old Lake Road

Until the mid-19th century, Devonport was connected with the rest of the North Shore by a causeway between Ngataringa Bay and the Hauraki Gulf. This causeway gave the appearance of a "narrow neck". On the eastern side of this strip of land is the Narrow Neck beach, on the western side there was an extensive mangrove swamp.
