The original 2 roomed cottage, built in the 1840s, sits on whale vertebrae from Kaikoura's shore-based whaling station. The rest of Fyffe House reflects the hardships endured by the families who lived there and the growth of the South Island east coast community of Kaikoura. Spectrum's Jack Perkins explores Fyffe House, a New Zealand Historic Places Trust category 1 property curated by Ann McCaw.
