Reduce the oven temperature to 200°C/180°C fan forced. Roast the pork, topping up water as necessary, for a further 1 1/4 hours or until the rind is well crackled and the flesh is tender. Drizzle with the maple syrup mixture. Cook for a further 5 minutes or until the rind is dark golden. Set aside for 10 minutes to rest. Cut into pieces and serve with rosemary sprigs and extra mustard, if you like.
