Your Place - Cave

You can say you come from Cave if you live in a district between the Rangitata and the Pareora Rivers in Canterbury - about 23kms northwest of Timaru on the way to Fairlie. The historic settlement, which has a landmark church built without nails, has a population of 85. Our tour guides are award-winning country musician Cameron Scott, landlady of the Cave Arms Tavern Sue Simmis, and Cave's unofficial mayor Morrell McFetrich.
