Police have been investigating the mysterious theft of eight wrought iron gates from around Dunedin in recent weeks.
While the case was not closed, police confirmed half of the gates – which may have been targeted to sell as scrap – had been recovered.
Acting Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond said some gates were recovered and returned to '’their very thankful and appreciative owners'' on Thursday.

Now in its eighth year, this weekend’s Dunedin Craft Beer and Food Festival should see 12,000 people pour through the gates of Forsyth Barr Stadium to sup on ale and cider and enjoy music from the likes of Don McGlashan and Ladi6.
Perhaps unusually for Dunedin, most of those beer lovers will not be students.
The festival is run by the Otago University and Students’ Association (OUSA), which launched it eight years ago on the concrete pad at Forsyth Barr as rain, wind and hail struck the roof.
“In those first couple of years, people were pretty nervous,'’ Jason Schroeder, OUSA’s events and venues operations manager admits.
That trepidation wasn’t entirely unfounded, with students’ alcohol-fuelled incidents attracting negative headlines.
Schroeder said for many it was difficult to understand why OUSA would put on a beer festival, which crucially was not aimed at students.
But word soon spread about the event, and by the next year the festival had encroached to a part of the grass, and then the year after reached the halfway line.
Within four years it covered the entire grass surface, and in recent years has become a two-day event, Friday and Saturday, with the former aimed at working professionals, Schroeder said.

''Any rooster-related questions?’' Dunedin mayor Aaron Hawkins asked his fellow councillors at a council meeting on Tuesday.
The question came as the council’s animal bylaw review came up in the council’s agenda, and feathers were quickly ruffled.
Roosters emerged as the prime target, with council community services general manager Simon Pickford revealing Dunedin was one of the few authorities to allow roosters in urban areas.
It was an issue that could drive neighbours '’to distraction’’, and the council needed to consult on the matter to see if there was appetite for change to the current bylaw.
Pickford confirmed in a statement to Stuff that the council was “involved in ongoing legal proceedings relating to multiple complaints of rooster noise emanating from a Pine Hill property”.
“We are unable to comment further on the specifics of the case while the matter remains before the courts.”
