If interested in the history, the Coach House Archive will also be open with displays on the history, past owners and how the house was rescued from dereliction and destruction in the eighties and brought back to life in the nineties.

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
