About Berhampore
Berhampore is a suburb of Wellington, New Zealand. It lies towards the south of the city, four kilometres from the city centre, and two kilometres from the coast of Cook Strait. It is surrounded by the suburbs of Vogeltown, Newtown, Melrose, Island Bay, Kingston, and Mornington. The suburb takes its name from George Hunter's property, Berhampore Farm, which was named after Berhampore in Bengal, where Hunter's father-in-law had served. Also surrounding Berhampore is the Berhampore Golf Course as well as a very extensive green belt with many walkways and tracks connecting outlying areas. The suburb also boasts some of Wellington's best all weather sports fields, on Adelaide Road and the national hockey stadium. Alongside the golf course there is a skateboard/bmx park, right by a kids mountain bike track. Berhampore School opened in 1915.
