Normanby is a small village in South Taranaki, New Zealand. It is approximately 6 km inland from Hawera along State Highway 3. Eltham is 13 km further north. It is also situated on the Marton - New Plymouth Line railway, which has been freight-only through Normanby since the cessation of passenger railcar services between Wellington and New Plymouth on 30 July 1977.〔Geoffrey B. Churchman and Tony Hurst, The Railways of New Zealand: A Journey Through History (Auckland: HarperCollins, 1991), 133.〕 The population of Normanby and its surrounding hinterland was 849 in the 2006 Census, a decrease of 24 from 2001. The town was founded at the site of the Waihi redoubt, which was established as a field headquarters in September 1866 by colonial military forces fighting Hauhau Māori in the Second Taranaki War〔(South Taranaki District Council website )〕〔(The New Zealand Wars, Vol 2 by James Cowan, 1922, chapter 15 ).〕 ==Ketemarae Pa==
Located near Normanby is Ketemarae Pa, a local historic centre for Maori settlement. It is an entry point for the Whakaahurangi track to Kairoa Pa, near Lepperton. This track linked northern and southern Taranaki before British settlement.〔Rumbletum.org:(Ketemarae Pa )〕〔Te Ao Hou: (Recent Books on the Maori ), June 1959〕
