Mount Roskill, known by its Māori name Puketāpapa, is a central Auckland suburb wrapped around a volcanic cone that erupted some 20,000 years ago. Once strawberry farms and then a wave of state housing that swelled the population through the 1940s and 50s, it earned the nickname Auckland's 'Bible Belt' for its many churches. Today it is one of the city's most diverse suburbs, a multicultural mix of homes, shops and places of worship just south of the central isthmus.
