This paper examines nineteenth century technology related to settler housing in New Zealand, and asks in particular what use British settlers had for cast iron prefabrication. Early accounts in diaries and letters focus upon the necessary adaptability of both settlers and their accommodation when different cultures met, and on the influence of fashions in materials and construction methods on form. Through various combinations - European and Maori construction, local materials, familiar form and ingenious additions - a New Zealand domestic vernacular began.
