  • New Lynn's Brickmakers (1860S to 2015)
    New Lynn’s brickmakers (1860s to 2015) The early brickmakers Early brickmaking operations in the New Lynn area date back to the mid 1860s, when Richard Ringrose, Alfred Bayes and John Redfern set up small-scale works near Delta Avenue near the New Lynn Bowling Green and (later) behind the former site of the Delta Theatre, until at least the early 1870s. 1 Alfred Ramsden, a brickmaker and building contractor, set up a temporary brickyard to supply the bricks for his New Lynn Hotel construction project on Great North Road in 1882, 2 and went on from that to be a contractor working in the central city, 3 then Napier, and then Melbourne, where he apparently found success in that city’s 1888 land boom. 4 From 1883 5 until 1890, 6 James Archibald operated what was a substantial brickmaking operation for the time on around 3 acres of railway reserve land in New Lynn. This was not received with universal approval among nearby settlers, who took an unsuccessful petition to their parliamentary representative to try to have Archibald’s lease of the land he used cancelled. 7 In May 1889, there were only four known brickmaking firms in operation south of the Whau River: Malam, Laurie, Hepburn and Archibald. 8 At some point from at least 1904 until around 1914, William Thomas and his sons operated a small brickworks on Riverview Farm (today the site of parts of Rimu, Miro and Nikau Streets, as well as Queen Mary Avenue, Durrant Place and Kuaka Place, beside the Whau River). According to Trevor N Price in a family history, 9 the family built a scow and conveyed their bricks to Auckland for such projects as part of the Chelsea Sugar Works and the Parnell Post Office.

  • New Lynn Includes Glendene, Kelston and Glen Eden
    West New Lynn includes Glendene, Kelston and Glen Eden ew Lynn is solid suburbia from its heart to its heights. The suburb’s focus is its signature N mall and it’s fitting that this is where the iconic Crown Lynn potteries, for years, produced tough, serviceable crockery for New Zealand’s dinner tables. Nothing fancy, no pretence. In recent years, the suburb’s status as the civic hub of the west has been usurped by its gung-ho neighbour Henderson but the locals don’t care. They have all that they need. Glen Eden is shaking off its backwater status thanks to the enviable energies of forward- thinking locals. They have revitalised its playhouse theatre, smartened up its RSA, acquired an excellent library and put in a railway station café. Don’t get Glen Eden confused with Glendene though. The latter is a newer area that sprouted during the 1960s and 1970s. Population Profile Population 46,536 % Aged Under 15 Years 23.27 % Aged Over 65 Years 9.48 % European 45.68 % Maori 11.43 % Pacific Peoples 18.99 % Asian 21.94 Who Lives There? New Lynn and its environs is real New Zealand, heartland stuff with families of all ages and stages working to make an honest living. First home buyers, long-term elderly residents and migrant families from throughout Asia (and Eastern Europe) make up the population mix. The suburb’s flat topography suits older folk and pram-pushing parents. Glen Eden continues to be a traditional first home buying area, and is used as a stepping stone to the more desirable neighbouring Green Bay and Titirangi.
