# What stood on this ground?

The heritage register’s answer within 250m of -43.52684, 172.65271, 4 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 [Linwood](https://www.chch.live/linwood) and in the [Central ward](https://www.chch.live/wards/central), Jake McLellan'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 580m from this point, a M4.1 on 12 June 2012, 10 km deep, labelled "Within 5 km of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/2012p439479)). 4 magnitude-3+ epicentres sit within a kilometre, 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 **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).

2 qualifying matters touch this ground: **Residential Character Area**, **Residential Heritage Area**. A matter narrows how the density rule applies, it does not forbid. The register is at [matters](https://www.chch.live/matters).

And the street itself is listed, this point stands inside the **Englefield Avonville** heritage area (schedule HA4), where the plan protects the whole street at once: mix of workers cottages and riverside townhouses from 1850 to present day.

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 23.0km 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).

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 rebuild photographed this ground, **558** SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2007–2017, stormwater work mostly. The nearest is about 6 m away, an inlet shot from 2013-03-14, [the frame itself](https://gis.ccc.govt.nz/image/SCIRT/Photos/Manhole_Photos/SWIN41255_SWDCP41255C_20130314 163851.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 **cycle lane** about **44 m** from this point. Within a short walk the layer files 7.5 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 **98 m** from this point, it reads “These Gates were donated to the Linwood–Avonside Croquet Club by Miss Florence Collinson August 1950”, standing on Beverley Park, commissioned 2009. 3 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, 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 marae and the old grounds

The nearest marae on the roll is [Te Puna Wānaka](https://www.chch.live/marae/te-puna-wanaka), wharenui Te Mātauranga Māori, 1.4km from this point (Ara Institute of Canterbury, whose tertiary whare stands on the city campus). The nearest named ground the plan schedules is **Ōtautahi, Tautahi's kāinga**, the Avon Loop, near Oxford Terrace and Barbadoes Street, 888m 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 3.9km 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 plain and channel deposits, observed performance variable and uncertainty in liquefaction performance due to effects of layered silty soil profiles, and the notes flag it for possible lateral spreading near a free face. 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 4.5km away, a rock cable 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 **43** notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, **10** veterans, 34 carrying a protection, the nearest is **Ginkgo** (*biloba*), 19 m tall, 0.75 m through, a crown 10 m across, carrying a subdivision protection, on private land, 81m away. A tree record is the register’s word on what stands, not a fresh survey. The canopy: [trees](https://www.chch.live/trees).
