It lies approximately 8 km north of the city centre and to the east of its nearest neighbour Johnsonville. It has a long history of early settlement and originally was farmed including being the early source of Wellington's milk. Newlands is located in a valley and covers two ridgelines, the side of one of which overlooks Wellington Harbour and up to the Hutt Valley. HistoryThe area that modern Newlands occupies was originally known as Papararangi[2] which is Te Reo Māori for "cluster of hills".[3] A 40 ha area was sold during the 1840-41 land ballots run by the New Zealand Company.[4] There are two theories to the suburb's name. The first is that it was named after Thomas Newland[4] who arrived in New Zealand from London in 1875 aboard the ship “Avalanche” and ran a business making glue and oil in neighboring Johnsonville before becoming Manager of the Manure Department of the Wellington Meat Export Company's Works in 1892.[5] Thomas Newland was close friends of Walter Futter who owned land in Newlands.[4] The second theory is that it was simply the "New Land" near Johnsonville.[2] The area was mostly used as a pig and dairy farm, providing Wellington most of their town milk supply from the 1920s to the 1950s.[2] Dairy farms were run by Bill Miles of Newlands Dairy Limited who purchased James Purchase’s farm in Glanmire Rd and ran 100 cows, also Pearce and Tristram. After the Second World War Miles subdivided for housing; initially in Wakely Road, then in Miles Crescent, Lyndfield Lane, Black Rock Road and Glanmire Road. Ernest Hoskings grazed his dairy herd in Johnsonville, Newlands and Horokiwi. [6][7]Newlands was the location of the 1923 "Newlands Baby Farmers", where Daniel Cooper was found guilty and executed for murder, performing illegal abortions and baby farming.[8] FacilitiesNewlands has recently (2013) had a revamped shopping centre with a new supermarket, and a new community centre. It is close to services and a mall located in its near neighbour Johnsonville. Community CentreThe Newlands Community Centre was opened in 2009[9] and is home to a drop in centre, Newlands Toy Library[10] and many community groups. Volunteer Fire BrigadeNewlands Volunteer Fire Brigade was established in 1965 on Newlands Road and has 22 members and one appliance; a 2010 Iveco Eurocargo 6/1 light pumping appliance.[11] Parks and reservesNewlands has a number of parks and reserves, including:
TransportNewlands has good access to Wellington's CBD and to Lower Hutt by a road connection to Ngauranga Gorge; and to Johnsonville and the main motorway to Kapiti and north via Stewart Drive, constructed in the 1960s.[16] Newlands is served by buses to and from the city, run by Newlands Coach Services.
