# What stood on this ground? The heritage register’s answer within 1000m of -43.56565, 172.75166, 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 [Clifton](https://www.chch.live/clifton) and in the [Heathcote ward](https://www.chch.live/wards/heathcote), Nathaniel Herz Jardine'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 192m from this point, a M3.0 on 22 February 2011, 5 km deep, labelled "10 km east of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/3496847)). 29 magnitude-3+ epicentres sit within a kilometre, the biggest inside five kilometres a M6.0 on 13 June 2011, 7 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 **Residential Hills** (RH), the residential family. A zone is a permission, not a description, the whole district’s zoning is at [zones](https://www.chch.live/zones). 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 30.3km 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). 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, **912** SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2010–2016, stormwater work mostly. The nearest is about 32 m away from 2012-07-23, [the frame itself](https://gis.ccc.govt.nz/image/SCIRT/Photos/Port_hill_photos/Photos/J6mziNB0Qd2VChVw+0ujvw.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 **154 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 **172 m** from this point, it reads “This plaque placed by the Sumner-Redcliffs Historical Society in memory of Sir Terence McCombs 1905–1982”, standing on Shag Rock Reserve, commissioned 2009. 3 inscribed plaques stand within a short walk, across 2 named grounds. The whole roll: [plaques](https://www.chch.live/plaques). The rules on this ground, 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). No named slope-hazard band covers this point, though it sits inside the broad "remaining slope instability" overlay blanketing the Peninsula hill country, the plan’s background watch. The whole watch: [slope](https://www.chch.live/slope). This point sits inside a scheduled area of significance to Ngāi Tahu, *Raekura ki Matuku Takotako* (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, 6.5km 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, 9.9km 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. 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 298m from this point, a rock still in place; 72 more pins within half a kilometre, 51 fallen, 1 wobbles easy. 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 **Liquefaction Damage is Unlikely**, Underlying geology is rock however uncertaininty remains about thickness and characteristics of overlying soil. 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 register puts **1** engineered rockfall defence within half a kilometre of this point, 1 mesh drape. 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 **24** notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, 24 carrying a protection, the nearest is **Cabbage tree** (*australis*), 10 m tall, 0.74 m through, a crown 5 m across, carrying a subdivision protection, on private land, 89m 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 ### [Dwelling and Setting, 1 The Spur](https://www.chch.live/place/288) 344m from your point 20 unread leads ### [The Esplanade War Memorials, Sea Walls and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/420) 533m from your point 15 unread leads ## On the register nearby - [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/288), 344m · 1 The Spur - [The Esplanade War Memorials, Sea Walls and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/420), 533m - [Tuawera/Cave Rock and Pilot/Signal Station, and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/229), 672m - [Redcliffs Tram/Bus Shelter, Wall and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/139), 799m - [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/163), 979m · 62 Nayland Street ## 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.
