Te Henui Vicarage from New Plymouth, New Zealand, is one of the heritage buildings of the city, registered by Heritage New Zealand as a Category 1 Historic Place, situated in the suburb of Strandon. It features the symbol of the undivided diocese of New Zealand (1841–1856) affixed to the front elevation.
Associated with the earliest period of European settlement in New Plymouth, the vicarage is one of the relatively few buildings in New Plymouth that was not demolished during the Taranaki Wars, signifying the esteem that the building had also with local Maori.
