The name of a place situated about thirty chains south-east of the Te Horo school.

Nothing certain is known of the history of this site but the name suggests that it was a small settlement or dwelling belonging to a chief named Penehira, probably Penehira Rangitiora who gave evidence concerning land in the vicinity at the Ngakaroro hearings of 1874.
