  • The Public Realm of Central Christchurch Narrative
    THE PUBLIC REALM OF CENTRAL CHRISTCHURCH NARRATIVE Written by Debbie Tikao, Landscape Architect and General Manager of the Matapopore Charitable Trust. Kia atawhai ki te iwi – Care for the people Pita Te Hori, Upoko – Ngāi Tūāhuriri Rūnanga, 1861 The Public Realm of Central Christchurch Narrative 1 2 CERA Grand Narratives INTRODUCTION This historical narrative weaves together Ngāi Tahu cultural values, stories and traditional knowledge associated with Ōtautahi (Christchurch) and the highly mobile existence of hapū and whānau groups within the Canterbury area and the wider landscape of Te Waipounamu (South Island). The focus of this historical narrative therefore is on this mobile way of life and the depth of knowledge of the natural environment and natural phenomena that was needed to navigate the length and breadth of the diverse and extreme landscape of Te Waipounamu. The story that will unfold is not one of specific sites or specific areas, but rather a story of passage and the detailed cognitive maps that evolved over time through successive generations, which wove together spiritual, genealogical, historical and physical information that bound people to place and provided knowledge of landscape features, mahinga kai and resting places along the multitude of trails that established the basis for an economy based on trade and kinship. This knowledge system has been referred to in other places as an oral map or a memory map, which are both good descriptions; however, here it is referred to as a cognitive map in an attempt to capture the multiple layers of ordered and integrated information it contains. This historical narrative has been written to guide the design of the public realm of the Christchurch central business area, including the public spaces within the East and South frames.

Following an initial assessment of the soils where the TMW would be applied, a lysimeter trial was set up at Lincoln University in December 2014. This trial comprised 18 50 cm x 70 cm lysimeters containing intact soil cores from the golf course at Duvauchelle (12 lysimeters) and an area between Takamatua and Akaroa (6 lysimeters). The soils from Duvauchelle and Takamatua were Barry’s soil and a Pawson silt loam, respectively.

  • 6025 Christchurch Akaroa Road, Duvauchelle
    DISTRICT PLAN – LISTED HERITAGE PLACE HERITAGE ASSESSMENT – STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE HERITAGE ITEM NUMBER 1157 FORMER DUVAUCHELLE SALEYARDS BUILDING AND SETTING - 6025 CHRISTCHURCH AKAROA ROAD, DUVAUCHELLE PHOTOGRAPH: B. SMYTH, MARCH 2014 HISTORICAL AND SOCIAL SIGNIFICANCE Historical and social values that demonstrate or are associated with: a particular person, group, organisation, institution, event, phase or activity; the continuity and/or change of a phase or activity; social, historical, traditional, economic, political or other patterns. The former Duvauchelle Saleyards building has historical and social significance for its association with the sale of cattle and other stock from Banks Peninsula farms. The Peninsula Saleyards Company was formed in 1888 and the company’s yards at Duvauchelle came into use in 1889. At the time of its inception Robert Latter, auctioneer, stock-dealer and farmer, was chairman of the company and OS Watkins was the secretary and public officer. Having previously leased land, erected saleyards and fenced paddocks on another site, in 1903 the Company purchased just over 3 acres of land opposite the Somerset Hotel from Elizabeth Shadbolt. The company decided in 1910 to erect an office and this was opened on 2 June 1911 by CAC Hardy on behalf of RH Rhodes, the local MP. The building initially consisted of 6 rooms which were occupied by Latter, WD Wilkins and Sons, H Matson and Co., the New Zealand Farmer’s Co-operative Society, JH Williams, and Dr McReddie and KH Fountain. The offices served to facilitate the commerce of auctioneering firms and business people arising from the sale of stock in the Company’s yards.

Over 2001- 2002 the concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus based determinands (nutrients) were measured while over 2006-2007 the concentrations of nutrients, chlorophyll-a, total suspended solids, enterococci, and salinity were measured. The bays sampled were primarily selected to represent a range of geographic locations around the peninsula. These bays varied in regard to aspect of the entrance, length, width and land use. The bays sampled over both time periods were Pigeon Bay, Little Akaloa, Okains Bay, Le Bons Bay, Otanerito and Flea Bay. Hickory Bay and Te Oka Bay were also sampled over 2001-2002 but not over 2006-2007 while Port Levy and Tumbledown Bay were sampled over 2006-2007 but not over 2001-2002. Median concentrations of the nutrients ammonia nitrogen (NH3N), nitrate-nitrite nitrogen (NNN), total nitrogen (TN), dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) and total phosphorus (TP) were typically comparable to those reported from sites north and south of Banks Peninsula but some differed from those in Akaroa and Lyttelton harbours.
