News<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

PEOPLE living in<br />

Lyttelton have found<br />

humour in the misspelling<br />

of the port’s name on a<br />

Spreydon street sign.<br />

The sign for Lyttelton<br />

St has been incorrectly<br />

spelled ‘Lyttleton’ at the intersection<br />

with Edinburgh<br />

St.<br />

Former Lyttelton<br />

resident Andrew Massie<br />

spotted the mistake on<br />

Thursday and posted a<br />

photo on the Lyttelton –<br />

Ain’t No Place I’d Rather<br />

Be Facebook page, gaining<br />

a number of laughs and<br />

likes.<br />

“You see it quite frequently<br />

online, people<br />

spelling it incorrectly, but I<br />

was really surprised to see<br />

it on a street sign,” he said.<br />

City council road maintenance<br />

manager Mark<br />

Pinner the sign “will be<br />

corrected.”<br />

“If it is the contractors,<br />

even if it is their subcontractors,<br />

error, they will<br />

pick up the cost of replacement.”<br />

Mr Pinner said the<br />

city council paid by the<br />

number of letters on street<br />

signs, so the cost of the<br />

misspelt sign could be<br />

between $100 and $140.<br />

Mistakes on street signs<br />

were “very infrequent”, Mr<br />

Pinner said.<br />

“There are a lot of<br />

stages in the process, so<br />

potentially the error could<br />

be from when it may have<br />

been requested to simply<br />

what the sign manufacturer<br />

puts in, and even allowing<br />

for spell checking,<br />

names are so individual<br />

that this isn’t a complete<br />

fail safe” Mr Pinner said.<br />

People commented on<br />

Mr Massie’s post, saying<br />

the city council could not<br />

follow Google Maps and<br />

MISTAKE: The<br />

city council<br />

says it will<br />

replace this<br />

incorrect<br />

street sign in<br />

Spreydon.<br />

‘Lyttleton St’ blunder<br />

gets a laugh<br />

Hoon Hay resident<br />

Gary Knight writes in<br />

support of Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong>’s Stoddart<br />

Cottage Trust’s recent<br />

Christchurch Civic<br />

Trust award<br />

I read with admiration<br />

the recognition of<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

Margaret Stoddart cottage<br />

trust in relationship of<br />

awareness of heritage<br />

assets.<br />

To have Christchurch<br />

Civic trust category D<br />

award bestowed on it not<br />

only bears testimony to<br />

the stature of this cottage<br />

trust but the presence of a<br />

nomination for this true<br />

asset from a candid visitor<br />

to the cottage is reflective of<br />

the value and popularity of<br />

this heritage landmark.<br />

As the oldest Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> dwelling, and<br />

birthplace of revered<br />

Canterbury artist Margaret<br />

would have to change<br />

Lyttelton’s name on maps<br />

to suit.<br />

Mr Massie tagged the<br />

city council in his post, but<br />

said he had not received a<br />

response.<br />

“The way the current<br />

council is performing, I’m<br />

not surprised,” he said.<br />

He said he thought<br />

people may assume the<br />

town was named for<br />

being a “little town”. But<br />

it was actually named<br />

after George Lyttelton, a<br />

member of the Canterbury<br />

Association.<br />

In 2016, the city council<br />

had to pay $200 to replace<br />

a sign incorrectly spelt<br />

‘Moorehouse Ave’, and in<br />

2014, a no-stopping sign<br />

in Cathedral Square added<br />

an extra ‘r’, resulting in<br />

‘Catherdral’.<br />

That sign remained in<br />

place for four weeks before<br />

being replaced.<br />

Stoddart the house, museum<br />

and craft shop within<br />

this iconic structure is a<br />

true hub for many both local<br />

and from surrounding<br />

areas.<br />

To further compliment<br />

the ambience it would be<br />

certainly innovative to<br />

adorn the interior with<br />

original Margaret Stoddart<br />

masterpieces.
