Mosgiel

Saddle Hill on the eastern margin of Mosgiel identifies Mosgiel and its history. Captain James Cook on his ‘discovery’ journey in February 1770 noted the hill formation as being like a saddle.  In the next century it was named by settlers as ‘Saddle Hill’.  It was also well known to local Maori: in their legend the taniwha known as Matamata wriggled down the Taieri river and died, to become the coastal hills ‘including Saddle Hill’. (Accessed 11th August 2015 from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Mosgiel)
