The coordinates (36°55′55″S 174°47′06″E) do not seem to be accurate. The ironworks was not by the waterfront. It was adjacent to the original Onehunga railway station, refer to c.1889 photograph of the works in the ironworks article. The article on Onehunga station says that the original station "opened in 1873, and was situated adjacent to Princes Street, to the north-east of the current station. Additionally, the Onehunga Wharf railway station served the Port of Onehunga from 1878 to 1927". I think that the current coordinates presume that the ironworks was adjacent to the Onehunga Wharf railway station, which is incorrect. A photograph of the area in the 1940s (also in the ironworks article), shows the old ironworks chimney and the original railway station alongside a straight street, nowhere near water. Assuming the road is Princes St, the road is on the left in the photo, indicating that the view is looking up the line toward Auckland (The possibility that the photo has been reversed is eliminated by the car being shown on the correct side of the road.) Hopefully, a local with some information about the old railway station can sort out the correct coordinates. TrimmerinWiki (talk) 23:47, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
