Petone (Māori: Pito-one) is a large suburb of Lower Hutt, Wellington. It stands at the southern end of the Hutt Valley, on the northern shore of Wellington Harbour.
Europeans first settled in Petone in January 1840, making it the oldest European settlement in the Wellington Region. It became a borough in 1888, and merged with Lower Hutt (branded as "Hutt City") in 1989. In November 2023, Hutt City Council decided to consult the New Zealand Geographic Board about changing the spelling of the suburb's name to Pito-one.[4]
