The name Taylor's Mistake is most commonly attributed to a Captain Taylor of the Volga. In 1858 Taylor beached the American ship in the bay. His mistake was that he mistook the bay for Lyttelton Harbour. Taylors mistake is a harbour found near Sumner in the South Island of New Zealand. Godley Head guards the entrance to Lyttelton Harbour. Godley Head is named after Jahn Robert Godley, the first leader of the Canterbury Settlers which established Christchurch in 1850. Godley Head WWII coastal defence battery sits atop sheer 120 meter-high cliffs. Built in 1939, ranked in the top ten New Zealand coastal defence heritage sites.
