Description
Largest island in Chatham Islands group, east of New Zealand. Feature shown on: NZTopo50-CI04 006353; 'Chatham Island: The first European to discover Chatham Island was Lieutenant William Broughton, commander of the armed tender Chatham, on 29 November 1791. There is doubt whether Broughton named the islands after his vessel or after William Pitt, the earl of Chatham. Both may be true, but the fact that the smaller of the islands was named Pitt supports the latter supposition.' Source: Reed, A.W. & Peter Dowling, Place Names of New Zealand, 2010.
