The images display Trafalgar Park in Nelson, New Zealand.

These visuals describe a modern facility, but the facts belong to the older Trafalgar Park. Built in 1888 on reclaimed mudflat land, the Nelson venue sits on the east bank of the Maitai River. It has a capacity of 18,000 and serves as the home for the Tasman Mako and Tasman United. The highest recorded attendance was 21,404 during an All Blacks Test match in 2018. The ground hosted matches during the 2011 Rugby World Cup and the 2015 Cricket World Cup.

The stadium pictured in the files is a different place entirely. It does not match the history of the Nelson ground, nor does it share the same river or the airport tower in the background. The visual information provided cannot be reconciled with the factual data for Trafalgar Park.

Trafalgar Park remains the correct subject for the Nelson venue, despite the mismatch in the accompanying photographs. The ground is a multi-purpose stadium in the Central Business District, historically known as The Mudflat Recreation Ground. It continues to host rugby and cricket, alongside concerts and other events.
