ASHLEY
The hamlet of Ashley only just
qualifies for a town synopsis. The historic Anglican Church
being the swinging point. Ashley also could be considered a suburb of
Rangiora except being over the river gives a greater degree of
interdependence. Just.
Ashley is a very small town some 4k
from Rangiora.
Nearby is the Ashley George which is
not far off the beautiful Inland Scenic Route 72. On this route you
can enjoy the scenery and have a peaceful trip with less traffic than
the main routes. From Ashley you can head to Kaikoura, Hanmer Springs,
West Coast, Methven and Geraldine.
Ashley has a hotel
that is a popular watering hole and the historic Anglican Church. 
Ashley has a high profile War Memorial
that can’t be missed for the traveler heading north.
The Church and Hotel are worth a look
in.
