The school’s own register
One school keeps eleven entries on the roll, Christ’s College’s chapel, houses, classrooms, halls and library each listed separately along Rolleston Avenue. The walk is a campus tour, ending at the memorial chapel across the river. Flat and short.
The walk, as a line
Straight between pins, the streets run longer. Every numbered pin opens that place’s own record.
