# What stood on this ground? The heritage register’s answer within 1000m of -43.52746, 172.61287, 5 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 [Christchurch Central](https://www.chch.live/christchurch-central-city) 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 740m from this point, a M3.1 on 26 December 2010, 3 km deep, labelled "Within 5 km of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/3437222)). 2 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 **Open Space Community Parks** (OCP), the open space family. A zone is a permission, not a description, the whole district’s zoning is at [zones](https://www.chch.live/zones). The plan’s heritage schedule protects this ground, the setting of **Hagley Park**, graded highly significant and on the national register as Category 1. The setting travels with the item, the schedule is at [heritage](https://www.chch.live/heritage). 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 19.8km 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). The record drew water over this point once, 2011-2014 Flooding - Mayoral Flood Taskforce. Each patch is one event’s observation, not a live hazard finding, the whole record is at [floods](https://www.chch.live/floods).

The rebuild photographed this ground, **165** SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2011–2013, wastewater work mostly.

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 **13 m** from this point. Within a short walk the layer files 6.3 km of network, 0.3 km of it separated from the traffic.

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 5.0km 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 **Medium Liquefaction Vulnerability**, River plain and channel 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 6.1km 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 **149** notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, **98** veterans, 51 carrying a protection, the nearest is **English Oak** (*robur*), 17 m tall, 0.64 m through, a crown 14 m across, a veteran, 11m 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 ### [Former Pumphouse and Setting, Pump No. 24.](https://www.chch.live/place/298) 249m from your point 20 unread leads ### [Dwellling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/557) 319m from your point 39 unread leads ## On the register nearby - [Former Pumphouse and Setting, Pump No. 24.](https://www.chch.live/place/298), 249m · 5 Matai Street East - [Dwellling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/557), 319m · 20 Mona Vale Avenue - [Mona Vale Lodge and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/152), 480m · 40 Mona Vale Avenue - [Bridge and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/101), 562m - [Mona Vale Bath House and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/320), 569m ## 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.
