Northwood is a suburb on the northern outskirts of Christchurch city. It was developed in 2000 as a subdivision of Belfast on land previously used for apple orchards.[2][3] The name "Northwood" was accepted at a meeting of the Shirley-Papanui Community Board on 2 February 2000.[4][5]

Farmland north-west of what later became Northwood was developed into Peppers Clearwater Resort in 1998.[6]

The Groynes is a large park between Northwood and Clearwater.[7] Styx Mill Conservation Reserve is on the south side of Northwood.[8]
