Waipipi

Waipipi is a rural locality in the North Island of New Zealand.

Waipipi is located west of the Waiuku River.

Waipipi is a Māori word made up of Wai (stream) and pipi (cockle). The name is in reference to the bank of an estuary with a large amount of cockles.

Waipipi was first settled by Europeans in the 1860s.

Waipipi was originally governed by the Waipipi Road District, formed 26 September 1867, which amalgamated with Franklin County in 1913. Waipipi was one of eight ridings of Franklin County.
