  remuera
Remuera was the last delivered of the three 11000 tonners built by the William Denny organisation between 1909 and 1911, and joined the fleet in September 1911 when she undertook her inaugural voyage from London to Wellington.
Remuera was returned to her owners during early 1920 and immediately despatched for a full overhaul and refit before she was to resume regular passenger services.
Remuera was claimed by the British Government for military use, and initially converted for use as 'trooper'.

 St. Aidan's Anglican Church - Remuera, Auckland - New Zealand
Remuera Rd (known then as Tamaki Rd) rose up the hill from Newmarket, and because it was near the junction of the route from Auckland, to Papakura (on the Great South Rd) and Onehunga (on Manukau Rd) it was a very suitable place for the combined school and chapel.
It was replaced in 1859 and shifted to the corner of Bassett Rd and Remuera Rd for use as parish hall and schoolroom.
Similar growth in that part of St Mark’s Parish between Remuera and Epsom was such that services began in 1914, and led to the building of St George's, Epsom in 1916, the appointment of a resident priest, and its emergence as a parochial district in 1926.
