The only buildings are a dog boarding place called Kennels and Cattery, a golf course and houses. The closest school is Pauatahanui School. There is a nearby church called Saint Albans Church, but it is in Pauatahanui not Judgeford. BRANZ, the Building Research Association of New Zealand headquarters is at the beginning of Moonshine Road near Judgeford.[1] HistoryIn the 1850s, immigrant settlers from England came to Judgeford. Most people farmed, and there were some sawmills. The area was originally called the Small Farms Settlement.{{sfn|Reilly|2013|pp=45-46,78}} The Judgeford School, sometimes called the Small Farms School, opened on 6 October 1879, with 29 children taught by Miss Georgina Chatwin. When it reopened after the 1934 summer holidays there were only 8 children, and the school closed on 10 May 1935 with the remaining pupils following other children in the area to the Pauatahanui School.{{sfn|Reilly|2013|pp=62-63,135-136}} In 1883 people started to call the suburb Judgeford because of an early settler called Alfred Judge who had built his house close to a river. Hence the name Judge's Ford was created, which soon changed into the name Judgeford. In the 1890s a cooperative dairy business was established at the junction of Flightys Road and the Pauatahanui-Haywards Road by the Abbott and Galloway families. It was primarily a creamery where the milk was separated and the cream sent elsewhere to make butter or cheese, and operated for about 15 years until it burnt down in 1907.{{sfn|Reilly|2013|pp=92-93 }} In World War II the US Marines had four camps in the Pauatahanui area; the Judgeford camp accommodated 3,755 men.{{sfn|Reilly|2013|p=149 }} PopulationAt the 2013 census, 1080 people lived in the Pauatahanui area unit, which includes Judgeford.[2] References{{cite book |last= Reilly |first= Helen |title= Pauatahanui: A local history |accessdate= |edition= |origyear= |year= 2013 |publisher= Pauatahanui Residents Association |location= Wellington |isbn= 978-0-473-25439-1 |oclc= |page= |pages= }}1. ^{{cite web|url= http://www.branz.co.nz/cms_display.php |title= Building Research Association of New Zealand |publisher= BRANZ |date=14 May 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.stats.govt.nz/browse_for_stats/population/census_counts/2013CensusUsuallyResidentPopulationCounts_HOTP2013Census.aspx |title=2013 Census Usually Resident Population Counts – Statistics New Zealand |publisher=Stats.govt.nz |date= |accessdate=2 December 2013}} External links
