We are proud to celebrate the wonderful township that is Norsewood and Settlement in 1872-73
Welcome to our Norsewood South Heritage Village site. A lot is going on here down on the south side of State Highway 2, possibly more than you might expect. Building on the legacy of Norsewear, our collection of projects and characters make the precinct the perfect place to stop – or even stay!
Norsewood is the northernmost settlement of Tararua District, in the lower North Island of New Zealand. We are full of unique and creative characters that keep our small town on the map. Once you’re here there is plenty of interesting history and a lot to do and discover. On this site, we want to tell the stories of Norsewood South, celebrate the community’s achievements, and showcase our talented locals. We are fortunate to have a wonderful resource archive encompassing history, art, ecology, quality knitwear and good old Kiwi brands. Over time we hope to share these resources with you both on-site and online.
