Macetown is an historic gold mining settlement in the Otago region of the South Island of New Zealand. It is now uninhabited but has become a tourist attraction. Access to the town is via an unsealed road that heads up the steep-sided Arrow gorge. Little remains of the original buildings but Needham’s House (the old schoolmaster’s house) and the bakehouse have been faithfully restored by the Department of Conservation. The Needhams Schoolhouse refers to the original school building in the historic gold-mining ghost town of Macetown, New Zealand, during the time when Joseph Needham was the schoolmaster.
