The house that moved
Plimmer’s House is up to the top of the steps behind his statue. It looks tiny compared to the surrounding new buildings and it was MOVED to make way for them to be built. Now a restaurant but not reviewed as that. Worth a detour - there’s so little of old Wellington left.

Significant historical citizen
John Plimmer was an early settler of Wellington, he played a significant role in the development of the region. To honour his achievements a life-size bronze sculpture of him and his attentive companion, ’Fritz’ the dog can be found at the bottom of Plimmer Steps just off Lambton Quay. Seek it out if you are down this end of town.

Man and his dog
Wonderful, quirky statue of a man with his dog. John Plimmer is known as the "father of Wellington" and hence why he has been immortalized in bronze. He lived at the top of the steps and was frequently seen walking towards Lambton Quay with his little dog. What a lovely piece of history.
