The council’s image, opened at its own host, the frame is the record’s, the reading is yours.
Where it stands
The record’s own pin; the strong outline is the suburb around it, the rest are its neighbours.

Public ToiletQuestions, answered briefly
A plaque of Christchurch, standing at Te Papa Kura Redcliffs Park in Redcliffs, one record on the council’s plaque register for the public estate.
The words above, verbatim, the surveyor’s transcription, casing, spelling and typos as they were read off the rock. The register does not say who the name belonged to; the dedication is the whole of the record.
The register marks it in service, commissioned 1899. The books' word, though, a plaque may have weathered since the survey, and the pin is the record’s position.
The record behind this
Christchurch City Council’s open data, the Furniture service’s Plaque layer. The inscription is the surveyor’s transcription; "In Service" is the books, not a promise the plaque still reads clean today. The pin is the record’s position on the layer.
