# What stood on this ground? The heritage register’s answer within 250m of -43.49385, 172.70150, nothing scheduled in the register here. 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 [Burwood](https://www.chch.live/burwood) and in the [Burwood ward](https://www.chch.live/wards/burwood), Kelly Barber'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 583m from this point, a M3.1 on 11 March 2011, 11 km deep, labelled "5 km north-east of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/3477100)). 6 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 **Transport** (T), the transport family. A zone is a permission, not a description, the whole district’s zoning is at [zones](https://www.chch.live/zones). The district plan holds this ground under 2 overlapping reservations: **Road** (New Zealand Transport Agency), **Road** (New Zealand Transport Agency). A designation is a reservation, not a build date, the register is at [designations](https://www.chch.live/designations). The 2011 grading never reached this point, the categories ran over the flat residential land. The grades are at [technical-categories](https://www.chch.live/technical-categories). The nearest mapped fault trace sits 27.2km 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 flood map puts this point inside a *high flood hazard* area, the ground it expects to take water deep or fast. It sits inside the *Avon River* flood-management area, the catchment’s own watch. The waiting water: [flood-hazard](https://www.chch.live/flood-hazard). The rebuild photographed this ground, **361** SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2011–2016, stormwater work mostly. The nearest is about 19 m away from 2012-11-19, [the frame itself](https://gis.ccc.govt.nz/image/SCIRT/Photos/Site_Photos/10956_2_20121119 155910.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 **4 m** from this point. Within a short walk the layer files 6.1 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 **6 m** from this point, it reads “‘POPPIES OVER GALLIPOLI’ Artists: Judith Streat and Ian Lamont Proudly sponsored by the Burwood Pegasus Community Board and Christchurch City Council and supported by the New Brighton RSA November 2003”, standing on Poppies Over Gallipoli, commissioned 2009. 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, the dog rules name this ground, Anzac Drive Reserve (prohibited/leashed); Anzac Drive Reserve (prohibited/leashed); Anzac Drive Reserve (prohibited/leashed); Anzac Drive Reserve (prohibited/leashed); 3 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 plan’s mapped inundation extent covers this point, the sea could reach here in a tsunami, on NIWA’s modelling for Environment Canterbury (ECAN Report R12/38 2012). A modelled reach, not a prediction, the plan’s line, not the evacuation map. The whole extent: [tsunami](https://www.chch.live/tsunami). This point sits inside a scheduled area of significance to Ngāi Tahu, *Ōruapaeroa* (Ngā Tūranga Tūpuna). The plan formally recognises this ground in the mana whenua cultural landscape, earthworks and works on the water carry extra care here. The whole schedule: [cultural](https://www.chch.live/cultural). ## 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, 3.1km 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, 5.9km 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. This point sits inside a scheduled site of ecological significance, *Travis Wetland*. The plan protects the remnant bush, wetland or outcrop on this ground, clearing it asks for consent. The whole ledger: [ecology](https://www.chch.live/ecology). 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 6.9km 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**, River flood basin and estuary plain deposits, observed performance variable and uncertainty in liquefaction performance due to effects of layered silty soil profiles. 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 7.9km 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 nearest notable tree on the register is **Cabbage tree** (*australis*), 7 m tall, a crown 4 m across, carrying a subdivision protection, on private land, 827m away. A tree record is the register’s word on what stands, not a fresh survey. The canopy: [trees](https://www.chch.live/trees). No scheduled place sits within 250m of this point. Widened to 2 km, the nearest on record is [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/441), 1852m away, 14 Fleming Street. That is a statement about the register, not the ground, unscheduled does not mean unstoried, only that no listing has been made for it. ## 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.
