It had a population of 549, as of the 2013 New Zealand census.[1] It is the eastern headland that marks the entrance to Wellington Harbour. The area is located south of Eastbourne and is part of Lower Hutt. The area is hilly and has no road access; a walking or mountain biking track follows the coast line.[2] The head marks the northern end of Fitzroy Bay. The main attraction of Pencarrow Head is the Pencarrow Head Lighthouse, the first permanent lighthouse in New Zealand constructed in 1859. It is one of Wellington's most notable heritage locations and New Zealand's only female lighthouse keeper, Mary Bennett, worked here. The return walk from Eastbourne takes four hours.[2][3] The Pencarrow lakes, Lake Kohangapiripiri and Lake Kohangatera, are freshwater wetlands that were blocked from the sea by earthquake activity. Stock grazing was discontinued in 2004 and the wetlands are recovering from stock and farming impacts. The area is under joint management by the Department of Conservation and the Greater Wellington Regional Council.[4] References1. ^1 {{NZ Quickstats2013|14401}} {{commons cat|Pencarrow Head, New Zealand|Pencarrow Head}}2. ^1 {{cite web |title=Pencarrow Heads Light House Walk |url=https://www.freewalks.nz/wellington/pencarrow-heads-light-house-walk/track |publisher=FreeWalks NZ |accessdate=31 October 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Pencarrow Coast |url=http://www.huttvalleynz.com/see-and-do/cycling/pencarrow-coast |publisher=Hutt City Council |accessdate=31 October 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |title=Pencarrow Lakes |url=https://www.doc.govt.nz/parks-and-recreation/places-to-go/wellington-kapiti/places/pencarrow-lakes/ |publisher=Department of Conservation |accessdate=31 October 2018}} 3 : Lower Hutt|Headlands of New Zealand|Wellington Harbour |
