Fannin famous in Taihape
Fannin has been a household name around the Taihape area for a long time. The present farming generation’s great grandfather bought and cleared the original 80ha block 5km east north-east of Taihape in the late 1800s. A bullock team towed the original house in on skids which it is still standing on today.
