McCrae's Bush is a small remnant of native bush with totara, matai and various other trees and lowland bush. A small stream is the boundary on the south side
It is controlled by the Palmerston north City Council and is vested as a reserve under the Reserves Act (1977).
Until 1981, this area was part of a farm owned by Roger McCrae. The land was owned by Mr A Lewis from 1981 to 1993, who then sold it to the PNCC as a reserve.
A path meanders through the bush and is part of the walkway network around Ashhurst. Access is via The Terrace, dropping down the walkway escarpment, or by vehicle on River Road.
