# What stood on this ground? The heritage register’s answer within 1000m of -43.57375, 172.63165, 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 [Cashmere](https://www.chch.live/cashmere) and in the [Cashmere ward](https://www.chch.live/wards/cashmere), Tim Scandrett'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 148m from this point, a M3.4 on 17 April 2011, 10 km deep, labelled "Within 5 km of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/3498514)). 47 magnitude-3+ epicentres sit within a kilometre, the biggest inside five kilometres a M6.2 on 22 February 2011, 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 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 20.7km 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, **878** SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2011–2016, wastewater work mostly. The nearest is about 10 m away, an access shot from 2011-08-12, [the frame itself](https://gis.ccc.govt.nz/image/SCIRT/Photos/Manhole_Photos/GHDWWAccessSSMH32874c20110812 144625.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 plaque register puts a dedication about **0 m** from this point, it reads “This seat was presented by the women descendants of ELIZABETH BEST TAYLOR 1868–1941 To commemorate Women’s Suffrage.”, standing on Cashmere Village Green, commissioned 2008. 5 inscribed plaques stand within a short walk. The whole roll: [plaques](https://www.chch.live/plaques). The rules on this ground, 1 bottle-store buffer holds 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). 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). ## 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, 4.1km from this point (Ara Institute of Canterbury, whose tertiary whare stands on the city campus). The nearest named ground the plan schedules is **Puāri Pā**, Victoria Square and north along the river, 4.9km away, the Waitaha settlement on the Ōtākaro bank, the oldest village the city centre covers, and later the market where Ngāi Tūāhuriri sold produce. 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 508m from this point, a rock still in place. 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 nearest engineered defence sits 1.3km away, a catch fence. 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 **20** notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, **8** veterans, 12 carrying a protection, the nearest is **Lancewood** (*crassifolium*), 7 m tall, 0.77 m through, a crown 6 m across, carrying a subdivision protection, on private land, 80m 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, Whareora](https://www.chch.live/place/62) 61m from your point 20 unread leads ### [Cashmere Hills Presbyterian Church and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/137) 140m from your point 38 unread leads ## On the register nearby - [Dwelling and Setting, Whareora](https://www.chch.live/place/62), 61m · 63 Dyers Pass Road - [Cashmere Hills Presbyterian Church and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/137), 140m · 2 MacMillan Avenue - [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/250), 162m · 2 Whisby Road - [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/63), 201m · 54 Dyers Pass Road - [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/90), 343m · 141 Hackthorne Road ## 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.
