History of Panmure History of Panmure Listen to the Auckland Libraries Heritage Podcast - Panmure Stories via Spotify The township of Panmure sits between two dramatic landforms; the Panmure Basin, also sometimes known as the Panmure Lagoon, a tidal inlet/estuary within a volcanic crater; and Maungarei/Mount Wellington which is a 135 metre volcanic peak. Maungarei is the youngest onshore volcano in the Auckland volcanic field; ie: excluding Rangitoto, having been formed by an eruption around 10,000 years ago. It is the largest of Auckland's scoria cones and named by colonists after the Duke of Wellington. The mountain’s Maori name, Maungarei, is translated as ‘the watchful mountain’ or as ‘the mountain of Reipae’, a Tainui ancestor. She travelled to Northland in the form of a bird. Maungarei is a site of archaeological importance as it was used in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries AD as a pa or hill fort. Evidence of terraces, storage pits and defensive trenches have been uncovered showing that Maori used this area over a considerable period of time. Other tribes also occupied the area from time to time. Panmure’s proud heritage goes back to pre-European times when the Panmure area (or Mokoia as it was known) was home to the Ngati Paoa people, and was the largest Maori community in New Zealand due to the fertile soils and abundant fishing in the Tamaki Estuary and Panmure Basin. Strategically placed for rapid access by canoe to the Waitematä Harbour, Hauraki Gulf and North Island east coast as well as 4km up the Tamaki Estuary was the portage that provided canoe access to the Manukau Harbour and the west coast. Settlement by the tribes in the area between the Tamaki River and Maungarei (Mokoia and Mauinaina Pa) became well established and was highly valued because of the easy access to good garden land, swamps and lakes, marine resources and many fresh water springs. The inhabitants of the two Pa were destroyed in 1821, by marauding warriors from the north. Led by the chieftain Hongi Hika, the invaders had the technological advantage of modern weapons acquired through earlier contact with Europeans and decimated the population. The Ngati Paoa never returned to the area, where a thousand of their number had been slain and the land slowly returned to be covered by fern and manuka. By 1838, a European settler, James Hamlin, established Waipuna Farm in the area and a community grew quickly over the following years. From 1848, many of the new settlers were Irish military pensioners who had been brought to New Zealand to establish a military base for defending Auckland. For many of the immigrant Pensioners, this was the best hope in providing for their families and after serving seven years in the Royal New Zealand Fencibles they would be given the cottage, land and household goods so they could settle down as a private citizen. Panmure, along with Howick, Otahuhu and Onehunga were the Fencible Settlements. In 1848, the “Clifton” arrived in Auckland from Galway, Ireland with seventy five men, their wives and children and settled on the site that was once Mokoia / Mauinaina Pa. Life was tough for these early settlers who needed to build their own village, grow vegetables, breed livestock and build wells but they were fortunate as the land was fertile and close to some already established farms where some could obtain extra work and supplies. The next 20 years saw the establishment of local services such as churches, schools and roads and in 1863 Panmure's first resident policeman, James Wren, was appointed. As Auckland grew eastwards, the first bridge across the Tamaki River was built in 1865 with train services coming to Panmure in 1873. Business really started to grow in the 1890's and expanded rapidly in the early 1900's with businesses associated with the new technologies of the day being established (Telephone linesman, electricians, plumbers). After World War One, with a demand to improve the roads, much of the old lava flow surrounding the mountain was quarried for industrial aggregates and the large quarry to the north of the mountain once produced 7% of New Zealand's roading aggregate. (now the suburb of Stonefields) Tamaki was still mainly farming and market gardens until the end of the Second World War and in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s saw the rapid expansion of the land around Maungarei/Mt Wellington for industry and state (government owned) housing. The land was plentiful, relatively flat, cheap and well served by road, rail and sea so was ideally suited for development. From 1949 – 1960 the population rose from a semi-rural 3,000 to a suburban 15,000. Expansion of housing and industry grew hand in hand and the district of Mt Wellington was sometimes referred to as ‘the home of modern industry’ with leaders in nationwide manufacture and distribution of products such as Alex Harvey Industries, Fisher & Paykel, Mason & Porter (Masport), Dulux and Berger paints, British Motor Corporation to name a few. Over a four year period eighty shops were built in the Panmure town centre and twenty offices established.The town continued to grow and was busy and prosperous town that rivalled Queens Street in Auckland’s CBD and supplied all the needs of the local residents. Photo supplied by Panmure's Historical Society Photo supplied by Panmure's Historical Society Through the 1980’s with the opening of cheaper land in East Tamaki and Manukau, industry slowly relocated and along with the increase of shopping malls and big block shopping centres the fortunes of the township of Panmure slowly declined. However t oday, Panmure is a unique and bustling community which prides itself on its cultural diversity and strength of community spirit. Download the Panmure Historical Walk Brochure here .

The vision for Panmure is to create a vibrant town centre that is a great place to live, visit and do business; building on its distinct landscape, transport connectivity, local services and amenities and sense of community. Art in Panmure Kāruhiruhi Read More Kāruhiruhi Read More Kāruhiruhi Read More Supported by: In early 2020, the PBA was offered a Development Response package from Auckland Transport to mitigate the effects of the AMETI Eastern Busway construction. The PBA Board members settled on a project which was to enliven as many roller doors as possible. By the end of 2021, the Auckland Transport’s Development Response Package had benefitted our business community with artwork on 10 roller doors along the length of Queens Road, Panmure. Furthermore, several designs have been added to other areas within Panmure, creating a welcoming and creative space for all to enjoy at any time. Iwi involvement has been paramount, to ensure collaboration with the community. The PBA see the potential to promote Panmure as a “street art” destination. We see an opportunity to turn the negative of pulled down roller doors into a positive for public perception; and promoting Panmure a place to visit.

The Panmure Basin colony has been situated on the southside of the Panmure Basin inlet for many years, but is in serious decline due to pollution, lack of food sources and poor fishing techniques. In 1997, 300 adults were counted in the area, and in 2017, only 10 adults were counted. For 30 years, Pam Howlett, affectionately known as "the mother of bird rescue", looked after the colony until her passing in 2010.

Destination Panmure Manalua Artist: Vilisoni Kaivelata Location: 162 Queens Road Date: May 2021 Artist Bio: Born in Tonga in 1972, Vilisoni is an artist who uses old cultural stories and interprets them in a modern way. He uses tapa cloth to paint on and also is a wood work artist. Some of his work, he transforms into tattoo designs which are very popular in Tonga. This modern interpretation of the traditional Tongan design represents the relationship between two birds. Translated directly, “manalua” refers to two birds or two pairs of bird wings. The deeper meaning of this pattern is to bring two groups or families together to form a new union. This design is seen in many types of cultural artwork from Tonga. It is used on artifacts found in not only Tonga, but around the world, especially the Pacific, Asia and parts of Africa.

He uses tapa cloth to paint on and also is a wood work artist. Some of his work, he transforms into tattoo designs which are very popular in Tonga. The heilala is a flower that signifies high ranking in anga faka-Tonga (The Tongan Way) and is the national flower of the Kingdom of Tonga. It is a royal flower because it is used to make the kahoa (necklaces) that are presented to the King, and there are ways of stringing the heilala that were traditionally only worn by people of ‘eiki (chiefly) rank. This artwork is a representation of the flowers that many people in the multi-cultural community of Panmure are very proud of. Tamaki Blossom Tamaki Blossoms Artist: Jia Luo Location: 135 Queens Road Date: May 2021 Artist Bio: Jia Luo is a mixed media visual artist with a BFA from The University of Auckland. Her focuses include painting, installation and curation.

The combination of peonies native of Asian cultures in Tāmaki Makaurau and Pohutukawa native to NZ represents the merging and remixing of cultures in Tamaki.

Situated next to Wai O Taki/Tāmaki River, the inhabitants of Mokoia and Mauinaina Pā’s moved between Te Waitematā and Manukau Harbour, and the water ways beyond. The west coast was accessed by the waka paddlers carrying canoes across the portage at Otahuhu, linking both harbours. Canoes were able to cross vast areas of water, allowing Māori to gather food including fish, shellfish, and sea plants, as well as trade goods with iwi located across Aotearoa. Evidence of the diversity of seafood was found during the excavation of the Mokoia Pā site (around the Eastern Busway bridge).

There will be train rides, animal cycles, circus workshops, entertainment and plenty of clowning around . If that wasn’t enough for you - we’ve got two bouncy castle obstacle courses, face painting, remote control crab racing, a Children’s Craft Market and way more… Of course you will be well fed with many delectable food options, no matter what your taste.
