- 21:28 Half an acre of history
Cosmo Kentish-Barnes meets farmer and compulsive collector Richard Spark, who over 35 years has filled the Northbrook Museum near Rangiora with memorabilia, materials and technology from yesteryear. The museum started with a milk bottle collection housed in an old milking shed, but has since grown into half an acre of attached buildings that are overflowing with local history. (26′44″)
