Hūkerenui is a settlement in Northland, New Zealand. State Highway 1 passes through the area. Kawakawa is northwest, and Hikurangi is southeast.[1][2]

The New Zealand Ministry for Culture and Heritage gives a translation of "large cascade" for Hukerenui.[3]

History

The settlement began as Hukerenui South in 1886, with a request made by a group of local people for the land under the Village Homestead Special Settlement system. The village was opened to the first 25 settler families the following year. Although the main road from Whangārei to Kawakawa passed through it, the road was only a dirt track, and was impassable during winter. Gum digging was one of the initial sources of income, but the Government cancelled gum-digging licences after fires in early 1888.Шаблон:Sfn A flax mill at Towai provided some jobs. Some were employed to build and improve the roads.Шаблон:Sfn

The North Auckland railway line reached Hūkerenui in 1901 or 1902.Шаблон:Efn It was extended north to Towai in February or May 1910, and to Kawakawa in 1912 or 1911.Шаблон:Efn

In 2019, the name of the locality was officially gazetted as Hūkerenui.[4]
