The point falls inside [Merivale](https://www.chch.live/merivale) 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.

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).

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 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 6.3km away, a rock anchor installed 2011.
