The register’s own frame
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.
The ground’s other names
In the archive
A name read off an inscription is a lead, not a verified identity, the search is where verification starts.

The plans and surveys kept here, asked once of the pin. The whole stack answers live: what stood on this ground →
Around it
The reports nearby
3,200 council reports pinned within 250 m of the point, most often Graffiti & vandalism and Trees & parks, 2,714 with a photograph. A pin is where a reporter stood, not a claim about the place itself.
Questions, answered briefly
A plaque of Christchurch, standing at Lonsdale St And Shackleton St in New Brighton, 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 other. The register does not say who the name belonged to; the dedication is the whole of the record.
3 plaques on the register share this ground, the others are linked above.
The register marks it in service, commissioned 2008. 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.
