# What stood on this ground? The heritage register’s answer within 250m of -43.51893, 172.58961, 2 places 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 [Ilam](https://www.chch.live/ilam) and in the [Fendalton ward](https://www.chch.live/wards/fendalton), David Cartwright'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 2.1km from this point, a M3.1 on 20 March 2011, 16 km deep, labelled "5 km west of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/3481222)). none within a kilometre, 38 within five, the biggest inside five kilometres a M4.7 on 26 December 2010, 5 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). A qualifying matter touches this ground, **Airport Noise Influence Area**, filed under utilities. A matter narrows how the density rule applies, it does not forbid. The register is at [matters](https://www.chch.live/matters). The 2011 grading filed this point **TC2**, technical category 2, yellow. 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 18.3km from this point, part of the Greendale Fault. 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).

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 8.1km away, a rock anchor 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 **30** notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, **25** veterans, 7 carrying a protection, the nearest is **English Oak** (*robur*), 20 m tall, 0.73 m through, a crown 12 m across, a veteran, 170m away.
