What is "tangiteroria"

Tangiteroria is a small rural community in the North Island of New Zealand. It is located halfway between Whangarei and Dargaville on State Highway 14 on the banks of the Northern Wairoa river.

It consists of a primary school, service station, pub, Catholic church, marae and community centre (pot luck dinner once a month on a Friday). The local cricket team play either Kirikopuni or Pukehuia once a week through the summer.

Kirikopuni and Pukehuia both had railway stations on the Dargaville Branch for the movement of stock throughout Northland and a passenger service.
