Moutere is a pastoral district, occupied chiefly by sheep runs of the same name. It lies on the Manuherikia Plain, near Chatto Creek. There is a small school at Moutere, but the post office is at the Chatto Creek hotel, which is 127 miles north-west from Dunedin. The Otago Central railway is under construction through Chatto Creek, which is now (August 1904) a stopping place for the coaches which run daily between Alexandra and Ida Valley.
