Russell was the first permanent European settlement in New Zealand, and once upon a time was known as the "Hell Hole of the Pacific" due to the many brothels and lawlessness in the whaling port. However today it is a beautiful historic town (population 816!!!) and one of New Zealand's most sort after postcodes.
This fig tree was planted in 1870 by the then customs officer. the building next door then became the local police station and is now the local police officers home.
