Description
Feature shown on: NZMS260 I36 Edition 1 1989; NZTopo50-BY17 012363; 'Properly Takapo, lit. taka: floor mat; po: night; a sleeping mat. Rakaihautu’s party heard noises at night here and fearing that they were about to be attacked by unseen enemies, they rolled up their sleeping mats hastily and fled. The other meaning of takapo, snowberry (Gaultheria antipoda), is less convincing.' Source: Reed, A.W. & Peter Dowling, Place Names of New Zealand, 2010.
