What stood on this ground?
The heritage register’s answer within 250m of -43.44470, 172.63357, 1 place on record, nearest first. Distances are to each place’s recorded pin, not its boundary.
The ground itself
This point falls inside Belfast and in the Harewood ward, Aaron Keown's seat, on the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood community board’s ground, measured against the drawn boundaries, so a point near an edge belongs to the side it is on, not the side its address is described as. The whole roll is at /wards.
The ground that moved
the September 2010 survey drew mapped liquefaction here. A patch is the survey’s footprint, not a finding about this address, the certainty tags and the whole city’s count are at /liquefaction.
The Crown’s line
The Crown’s 2011 classification left this point outside the residential red zone, whatever the surveys mapped, the line the government bought out did not cross it. The whole boundary is drawn at /redzone.
The plan’s word
The district plan files this ground as Neighbourhood centre zone (NCZ), the commercial family. A zone is a permission, not a description, it says what the plan allows on this patch, not what stands on it. The whole district’s zoning is drawn at /zones.
The remembered ground
No named scheduled area covers this point, though it sits inside a Mahaanui Iwi Management Plan silent-file precinct, the plan flags culturally sensitive ground here while deliberately withholding the specific sites; ask before digging. The whole schedule is drawn at /cultural.
The marae and the old grounds
The nearest marae on the roll is Te Ora Hou Ōtautahi, wharenui Te Iho o te Ora, 6.6km from this point (Te Ora Hou Ōtautahi — a kaupapa Māori youth and whānau organisation). The nearest named ground the plan schedules is Kaiapohia — Kaiapoi Pā, north of the Waimakariri, near Waikuku, 5.4km away, the great fortified capital of Ngāi Tahu — Tūrākautahi's pā, sacked by Te Rauparaha in 1832 after a siege of months; its fall is why the rūnanga moved to Tuahiwi. The whole roll of marae and the grounds the plan names are kept at /maraes, a record of what the file says, not a claim on this point.
The ground’s grade
The 2011 grading filed this point TC2, technical category 2, yellow. Enhanced foundations, better piles or a stronger slab, were judged necessary here. A category is the verdict for a patch of ground, not a finding about this address, that belongs to an engineer. The grades, drawn: /technical-categories.
The ground itself
No recorded dump under this point, the council keeps the old tips on the books and this ground isn’t one of them. The ones that are, from 1880 on: /landfills.
When the water came
No recorded flood patch reaches this point, the council’s layer keeps the water it saw, and it never drew water here. The ground it did draw: /floods.
The waiting water
No high-hazard flood area covers this point It sits inside the Lower Styx River flood-management area , the catchment’s own watch. The whole flood map is drawn at /flood-hazard.
The quiet lines
No air-noise contour covers this point The airport’s bird-strike buffer, 8 km from the path, reaches this far. The whole map is drawn at /noise.
The named ground
Named water within 500 m of this point, measured to the line or the edge, the open map’s record.
The rebuild’s receipts
The rebuild photographed this ground, 127 SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2011–2013, wastewater work mostly. The nearest is about 39 m away, an access shot from 2013-10-01, the frame itself. A work log filed as the dig went on, not a survey of what stands today, the whole record is drawn at /rebuild.
The pedal network
The council’s cycleway layer files a cycle lane about 305 m from this point. Within a short walk the layer files 0.5 km of network. The whole network is drawn at /cycleways.
The rules on this ground
The ground sits inside the takiwā of Te Ngai Tuahuriri Runanga. The bylaw is the instrument, this is the register’s own drawing of it, thinned to about four metres; the legal wording wins where they differ. The whole rulebook: /rules.
The dangerous work
No hazardous-activities listing reaches this point, the register keeps the parcels where contaminating work ran, and this isn’t one of them. The ones that are: /hazards.
The made ground
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.
What the model says
The 2019 liquefaction vulnerability study draws this ground as Liquefaction Damage is Possible, River plain and channel deposits, observed performance variable and uncertainty in liquefaction performance due to effects of layered silty soil profiles. That is a district-scale screening read, not a finding about an address, the study itself says site-specific analysis confirms a parcel. What the ground actually did in February 2011 is the record above; the whole study is drawn at /vulnerability.
The armour
The register puts the nearest engineered defence 13.7km away, a rock cable installed 2011. Nearly all of these are the emergency works the quake years left standing, the file’s condition rating is its own word, not a fresh inspection. The whole register is drawn at /defences.
The canopy
The register counts 8 notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, 8 carrying a protection, the nearest is Japanese maple (palmatum), 7 m tall, a crown 7 m across, carrying a subdivision protection, on private land, 146m away. A tree record is the register’s word on what stands, not a fresh survey. The whole canopy is drawn at /trees.
The shakes near here
The nearest break GeoNet recorded sits 1.5km from this point, a M3.4 on 21 September 2010, 8 km deep, labelled “5 km north of Christchurch”, its record at GeoNet. none within a kilometre, 17 within five, the biggest inside five kilometres a M4.5 on 14 February 2016, 8 km deep. An epicentre is where the instruments placed the break, not where the shaking was felt; the whole catalogue is counted at /sequence and the story in plain language is the earthquakes explainer.
The fault nearest here
The nearest mapped fault trace sits 20.6km from this point , part of the Ashley Fault Zone. 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.
The rocks overhead
The nearest surveyed boulder sits 13.1km from this point , it came down in the shakes. A pin is where the survey saw the rock, not a promise about the slope, the whole survey is at /boulders.

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. Each place’s pin carries its own precision, the nearest is recorded to ±15m. The radius is yours to widen, ask again at 1000m. A register listing is a lead to follow, not by itself a claim, and if the record has this ground wrong, the corrections door is open.
