Drury, New Zealand

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Drury is a small town located within the limits of Franklin district at the southern end of the Auckland metropolitan area, in New Zealand. It lies 12 kilometres to the northeast of Pukekohe, close to the Papakura Channel, an arm of the Manukau Harbour.

Located 35 kilometres south of the centre of Auckland, Drury was until recently a relatively small semi-rural area nestling at the foot of the low-lying Bombay Hills. Urban spread of the city has, however, rendered it now an extreme southern suburb, close to the junction between State Highways 1 and 22, both of which head south towards the Waikato region.
