# What stood on this ground? The heritage register’s answer within 2000m of -43.48177, 172.70717, 1 place on record, nearest first. A register listing is a lead to follow, not by itself a claim. Distances are to each place’s recorded pin, not its boundary. The point falls inside [Parklands](https://www.chch.live/parklands) and in the [Coastal ward](https://www.chch.live/wards/coastal), Celeste Donovan's seat, measured against the drawn boundaries, not the side its address is described as. The whole roll is at [/wards](https://www.chch.live/wards). The nearest break GeoNet recorded sits 439m from this point, a M3.3 on 28 February 2015, 10 km deep, labelled "5 km north-east of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/2015p155716)). 2 magnitude-3+ epicentres sit within a kilometre, the biggest inside five kilometres a M5.7 on 14 February 2016, 8 km deep. An epicentre is where the instruments placed the break, not where the shaking was felt; the whole catalogue is at [sequence](https://www.chch.live/sequence) and the story in plain language is [the earthquakes explainer](https://www.chch.live/how-nz-works/canterbury-earthquakes). The Crown’s 2011 classification left this point outside the residential red zone. The whole boundary is at [redzone](https://www.chch.live/redzone). The district plan files this ground as **Medium density residential zone** (MRZ), the residential family. A zone is a permission, not a description, the whole district’s zoning is at [zones](https://www.chch.live/zones). The 2011 grading filed this point **TC3**, technical category 3, blue. A category is the verdict for a patch of ground, not a finding about this address, the grades are at [technical-categories](https://www.chch.live/technical-categories). The nearest mapped fault trace sits 26.1km from this point, part of the Ashley Fault Zone. A drawn trace is the record of where the ground broke or deformed, not a prediction for this address, the mapped faults are at [faults](https://www.chch.live/faults). No recorded dump under this point, the council’s landfill layer keeps the old tips on the books and this isn’t one. The ones that are, from 1880 on: [landfills](https://www.chch.live/landfills). No recorded flood patch reaches this point, the layer keeps the water it saw and never drew it here. The ground it did draw: [floods](https://www.chch.live/floods). The plan’s density map holds this point, inside the *Residential Suburban Overlay*. The allowed shape: [density](https://www.chch.live/density). The rebuild photographed this ground, **932** SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2011–2016, wastewater work mostly. The nearest is about 43 m away from 2012-08-16, [the frame itself](https://gis.ccc.govt.nz/image/SCIRT/Photos/Site_Photos/10904_2_20120817 101317.jpg). A work log filed as the dig went on, not a survey of what stands today. The whole record: [rebuild](https://www.chch.live/rebuild). The cycleway layer files a **shared path** about **146 m** from this point. Within a short walk the layer files 0.8 km of network. The books' record, not today’s cones, the whole network: [cycleways](https://www.chch.live/cycleways). The plaque register puts a dedication about **19 m** from this point, it reads “‘CHRYSALIS’ / THIS SCULPTURE SYMBOLISES MOTHER EARTH EMERGING FROM A FLOWER BUD. ALTHOUGH SHE IS SOFT AND NEEDS SOME PROTECTION FROM THE COCOON, SHE IS BECOMING STRONG ENOUGH TO BE WITHOUT IT. PEACEFUL AND POWERFUL, HER OTHER SIDE IS FIREY WHEN NOT RESPECTED. / OAMARY STONE BY EVA BUSCH. MARCH 1996”, standing on Parklands Library Queenspark, commissioned 1899. 4 inscribed plaques stand within a short walk, across 3 named grounds. The whole roll: [plaques](https://www.chch.live/plaques). The rules on this ground, 2 bottle-store buffers hold around this point; inside the takiwā of Te Ngai Tuahuriri Runanga. The bylaw is the instrument, this is the register’s drawing of it, thinned to ~4 m. The whole rulebook: [rules](https://www.chch.live/rules). ## The marae and the old grounds The nearest marae on the roll is [Ngā Hau e Whā National Marae](https://www.chch.live/marae/nga-hau-e-wha), wharenui Aoraki, 4.4km from this point (Te Rūnanga o Ngā Maata Waka, whose national marae is open to Māori of every iwi). The nearest named ground the plan schedules is **Ōtautahi, Tautahi's kāinga**, the Avon Loop, near Oxford Terrace and Barbadoes Street, 7.1km away, the seasonal camp of Tautahi, the chief the city is named for and son of Huikai of Koukourārata, on the Avon Loop. The whole roll: [maraes](https://www.chch.live/maraes), a record of what the file says, not a claim on this point. No hazardous-activities listing reaches this point, the register keeps the parcels where contaminating work ran, and this isn’t one. The ones that are: [hazards](https://www.chch.live/hazards). No fill parcel reaches this point, the files keep the ground that was made, and this isn’t filed as made. The parcels that are: [fill](https://www.chch.live/fill). The rockfall survey’s nearest pin sits 8.2km from this point, a rock that came down in the shakes. A pin is where the survey saw the rock, not a promise about the slope, the survey: [boulders](https://www.chch.live/boulders). ## What the model says The 2019 liquefaction vulnerability study draws this ground as **High Liquefaction Vulnerability**, Dune related deposits which are usually well characterised by observed performance, CPT investigations and simplified liquefaction analyses. A district-scale screening read, not a finding about an address, the study itself says site-specific analysis confirms a parcel. The whole study: [vulnerability](https://www.chch.live/vulnerability). ## The armour The nearest engineered defence sits 9.3km away, a mesh drape installed 2011. Nearly all are the emergency works the quake years left standing; the file’s condition rating is its own word, not a fresh inspection. The register: [defences](https://www.chch.live/defences). ## The canopy The register counts **9** notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, 9 carrying a protection, the nearest is **Peach** (*persica*), 2 m tall, a crown 1 m across, carrying a resource consent protection, on private land, 178m away. A tree record is the register’s word on what stands, not a fresh survey. The canopy: [trees](https://www.chch.live/trees). ## What the record says ### [Dwelling and Setting, 14 Fleming Street](https://www.chch.live/place/441) 1755m from your point 20 unread leads ## On the register nearby - [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/441), 1755m · 14 Fleming Street ## How this answer is made The register this asks is the district-plan heritage schedule and the Heritage New Zealand list, scheduled places, not everything that stood here.
