Residents 

frustrated 

by ongoing 

road 

closure 


A GROUP of Lyttelton residents 

are frustrated by what they see as 

city council inaction on repairing 

a slip that has blocked an end of 

their street for 18 months. 

“We’re pretty angry because 

we pay good rates and we expect 

more from our council,” said Ross 

Pde resident Kathy Bessant. 

Bessant and her partner Ken 

Claydon say they have dealt with 

numerous inconveniences on 

their “truck-wide” street since 

part of the road slipped away in 

July 2022 after heavy rain. 

Ross Pde intersects Jacksons Rd 

and Ross Tce, with the closure at 

the Ross Tce end. 

“We’ve got a very narrow, 

awkward, steep street. It’s one of 

the steepest bits of Lyttelton,” said 

Claydon. 

Another Ross Pde resident, 

Jane Seaford agreed with Bessant 

and Claydon, saying the lack of 

progress on the road reopening is 

getting “beyond a joke”. 

A city council spokesperson 

said Ross Pde has been closed for 

longer than anticipated due to the 

slip area being too damp to safely 

remove.

First festival in a decade a success 

FOOD, FUN and music 

entertained about 500 people 

at the first Little River Music 

Festival in a decade. 

“We had a fantastic time,” 

said event organiser Todd Tulk. 

The festival was organised 

in part as a fundraiser for the 

renovation of the Little River 

community shed. 

It was a family affair at a 

beautiful location on Tracy and 

Peter Wright’s farm, said Tulk. 

“The bands were amazing 

and are all keen to come again 

next year.” 

Former lead singer of The 

Exponents, Jordan Luck, headlined 

the event with his band. 

“All the bands built up to the 

last hour and a half of the Jordan 

Luck Band. (It) was a day 

well spent. The place erupted. 

It was so fulfilling to see everyone 

so happy and having fun.” 

Christchurch-based alternative 

pop-rock band Patients 

opened the concert followed by 

Little River quartet, the Western 

Valley Road Band. 

Up next was The Late Starters, 

best described as “new 

Kiwi, old school music”. 

Then Christchurch music 

legend Al Park performed followed 

by Adam Hattaway and 

the Haunters, an alternative 

rock n’ roll band. 

“A big thank you to all our 

sponsors, the volunteers and 

especially to all the amazing 

bands putting their time and 

talent up for free for such an 

amazing cause,” said Tulk. 

Plans are already in the 

works for next year’s festival.

SLIP REPAIRS TO START 

The route between Omahu Bush 

Reserve and Kennedys Bush 

Reserve on the Summit Rd will 

be closed for slip repairs starting 

tonight. The works are expected to 

be completed in early September. 

Two new retaining walls will be 

built to support the slope below 

the Summit Rd. Work hours will 

be Monday to Saturday, 7am to 

5.30pm. 

CRASH DRIVER UNINJURED 

The driver of a ute that crashed on 

the Port Levy-Pigeon Bay Rd was 

said to be lucky to have suffered 

only minor injuries. The vehicle

rolled several metres into a creek 

bed. Firefighters from Diamond 

Harbour arrived at the scene 

about 3.30pm on Wednesday and 

administered first aid. 

LANE CLOSURE ON SH75 

A section of State Highway 75 

between Little River and the

Remediation work to 

start at Godley Head 

ASBESTOS remediation work 

at popular heritage site Godley 

Head will start this month. 

Derpartment of Conservation 

senior ranger heritage 

and visitors Mandy Black said 

work is due to begin today. 

“All going to plan, the 

campsite area and historic gun 

emplacements will reopen to 

the public in June,” she said. 

The campsite area and 

Lighthouse Cottage was closed 

before Easter 2021 after unsafe 

levels of asbestos were found 

in the gravel roads on site. This 

prompted wider testing which 

discovered asbestos contamination 

at the gun emplacement. 

Large trucks and trailers will 

be using the section of Summit 

Rd leading to Godley Head for 

the duration of the works. 

Black said the section of 

road from Evans Pass to the 

Godley Head carpark should 

be avoided during working 

hours of 7am to 6pm, Monday 

to Friday. 

“Walking and mountain 

biking tracks in the area which 

are currently open will generally 

remain open, but some 

short detours and brief temporary 

closures to some sections 

may be in place,” she said. 

“Extra care will need to be 

taken if crossing the road. 

“We know Godley Head is 

a popular site, hosting about 

100,000 visitors per year before 

the closure, so we’re really 

looking forward to getting it 

open again as soon as possible.” 

Black said in the meantime 

the site will remain fenced off, 

with security cameras in place. 

“Disappointingly, the site 

has suffered from some theft 

and vandalism while it was 

closed, such as the copper gutters 

and pipes being stolen.” 

Godley Head is one of 

New Zealand’s best coastal 

defence heritage sites. Sitting 

on the headland at the 

entrance to Lyttelton Harbour 

Whakaraupō, the site offers 

outstanding panoramic views 

of the harbour and coastline. 

Black said it has been a long 

journey to plan and secure 

funding for the remediation 

work. 

“We know this closure has 

been disappointing for some 

people who have wanted to 

enjoy the site, but we put the 

health and safety of its visitors 

first.” 

“We want to thank 

everyone for their patience 

and for respecting the access 

restrictions.” 


Fully booked surf event 

relies on ‘army’ of helpers 

• From page 1 

“We couldn’t do this without 

the huge army of volunteers from 

the club, the wider community 

and a core group of sponsors.” 

Connor Duncan-Caley was one 

of last year’s participants. 

The 14-year-old has dealt with 

motor-function issues since he 

had a brain tumour removed 

when he was 8. 

“Being out on the board gives 

me lots of joy. SURFable gives me 

the opportunity to do something 

I can’t normally do and I love it,” 

said Connor. 

The event is fully booked, and 

Mannix said every year there are 

more people interested than can 

be accommodated for. 

The session in Scarborough will 

run from 10am to 3pm. 

Butt said he is “pretty stoked” 

the event he spurred has now 

lasted for a decade. 

“The idea was to make it sustainable, 

so that’s why we hooked 

up with the surf clubs.” 

Butt’s idea helped create other 

surfing events for disabled people 

from 2012 to 2013 in Ruakākā, 

near Whangārei, and with Kaitaia 

College. 

Mannix said past years’ events 

have been rewarding with smiles, 

laughter and tears of happiness 

coming from all involved. 

“Many have never had the opportunity 

to experience being in 

the ocean before,” he said.

“It is a huge event for the surfers, 

their families and the army of 

volunteers who give up their day.” 

Surfers register through schools 

and community support groups. 

They have a wide range of disabilities 

from blindness to autism. 

After finishing their 30 minute 

session the surfers will be treated 

to a BBQ. 

“That warms them up when 

they get out,” said Mannix. 

The longboarders surf club has 

about 50 members from across 

Christchurch, ranging significantly 

in age and ability but all with a 

passion for surfing and friendly 

competition. 

They celebrated their thirtieth 

anniversary in September.

Residents say continuing 

road closure is a safety issue 


Once conditions had dried 

out and allowed for removal to 

take place, the spokesperson 

said there was “ambiguity as to 

whether the concerned area was 

public or private land. This was 

eventually resolved.” 

They said work to reopen the 

road should be well under way 

by June. 

But residents feel the ongoing 

closure is an accident waiting to 

happen. 

Claydon said he sees several 

vehicles a week struggling to 

reverse out of the street after 

realising it cannot be used as a 

short cut between Ross Tce and 

Jackson Tce. 

He said a driver nearly slipped 

off the road a few weeks ago 

while reversing. 

“Some people are no good at 

backing down hills.” 

There was a sign on Jacksons 

Rd, warning vehicles of the road 

closure but this was removed 

about a year ago, he said. 

There is still a road closure 

sign on Ross Pde, but it is too far 

from Jacksons Rd to be useful, as 

vehicles have already turned into 

the parade by the time it comes 

into view. 

FRUSTRATED: Ross Pde residents, Ken Claydon and Kathy Bessant at the Jacksons Rd 

end of their street. The other end has been closed since part of the road slipped away in 

July 2022. Below – The damaged part of the road has been temporarily covered. 

“It’s absolute stupidity,” Claydon 

said. 

He said the closure also created 

issues for deliveries. 

“If I’m getting a delivery of 

firewood or anything, the guy 

with the trailer has got to back 

up the hill.” 

The residents said they are 

frustrated with the lack of visible 

progress. 

“There’s a sign up there that says 

temporary. I’ve rung the council 

several times and asked them 

what’s happening and they say ‘oh 

yes, oh yes, it’s going to be fixed’ 

but nothing is done,” he said. 

The city council spokesperson 

said the design for a new retaining 

wall to prevent another slip 

and keep the area dry is under 

way. 

“We are hoping the wall will 

be constructed by June, and the 

road opened.” 

Claydon said he will believe it 

when he can see the wall under 

construction.

Water use 

restrictions 

in place on 

peninsula 

WATER restrictions are 

being put in place for Akaroa, 

Duvauchelle and Takamatua as 

dry conditions put pressure on 

water supplies. 

Level 2 restrictions came into 

effect last week. 

The restrictions mean 

hand-held hosing only, with 

no outdoor water use allowed 

between 3pm and 9pm. 

Unattended hoses, sprinklers, 

and garden irrigation systems 

are not permitted at any time. 

A city council spokesperson 

said the streams that supply 

drinking water to these areas 

have dropped steadily in recent 

weeks. 

Electronic signs have been set 

up at the entrances to Akaroa 

and Duvauchelle to advise 

about the water restrictions. 

Water restrictions will remain 

in place until further notice. If 

water use is not reduced, level 4 

restrictions may be introduced. 

The council is monitoring 

water levels on Banks Peninsula 

and any changes will be 

communicated on electronic 

signs and on Newsline.

LETTERS 9 

Simpler solutions than 

rerouting pathway 

THE IDEA of relocating the Coastal 

Pathway is fraught with unintended 

consequences. It would require either 

extensive land acquisition from coastal 

landowners, or construction of a pathway 

out in the Estuary itself, either by 

reclaiming more land or constructing a 

viaduct. 

A simpler, cheaper solution would be to 

widen the path through Redcliffs village 

and past Barnett Park by eliminating 

on-street parking (and potentially incorporating 

the eastbound cycle lane) and relocating 

the bus stop from its spot in front 

of The Spur cafe. (Or pushing it out into 

the traffic lane as it has been elsewhere 

along Main Rd.) This grants path users an 

extra 2.5-4m of path to share. 

For those immediately about to whinge 

about the loss of street parking I must 

remind them that the parking around 

and under the abandoned New World is 

still open to the public 24/7, as is the car 

park in Barnett Park and behind The Spur. 

Heaven forbid you have to walk an extra 

30m to get to the fish and vhip shop. 

I consider this solution to be obvious, 

expedient, and inexpensive. As such, it’ll 

never be done. 

-Samuel Zelter 

I would like to point out that the land 

in front of these properties is the King’s 

chain. The route that is available at present 

is dangerous to say the least. The bikes at 

present run in front of various shops and a 

busy medical centre. 

Why are a small group of people holding 

the city to ransom? They did not pay 

for this land and as a resident that walks 

this area I feel we need to rectify the route 

of the walk/cycleway 

-Jenny Stokes 

I am speaking as a 30-year resident who 

just loves living here but also speaking as a 

4-5 day a week cyclist. 

Personally I believe one of the issues 

is that some cyclists use the pathway to 

Sumner as a training track, which it is not. 

Serious cyclists have had and still have a 

perfectly safe bike lane on the road to ride 

as hard as they like on their training runs. 

My simple solution is at the Spur Cafe 

car park entrance all cyclists dismount 

and walk a mere 100 paces till past the 

fish and chip shop where the path is wide 

and easily shared. There the cyclist could 

remount and amble along to Sumner as 

is the intention. Travelling from Sumner 

then the operation is reversed. 

Everybody is safer (at) no cost. Dismount 

walk the 100 paces, have a chat, 

smell the roses or the Estuary – whatever, 

but just grow up and share for goodness 

sake. 

The dismount areas can be well signposted 

at both ends with painting on 

the path etc. To cut costs I’ll even do the 

painting for free. 

-John Higginson (abridged) 

As part of a group of keen cyclists who 

bike regularly from the city to Scarborough 

and back, I find no issues with riding 

on the Main Rd Redcliffs shops for such a 

short distance. 

This section of Coastal Pathway has 

a shared footpath for slower bikers and 

those with kids and permanent road 

marking and cycle lane on the road itself 

for faster bikes. So, two separate options 

that can be taken. 

Over the years we have never had a 

safety issue, although we mainly use this 

route in the weekend, so can’t comment 

for during the week. 

We always stop at The Spur cafe for a 

coffee so diverting the Pathway along the 

edge of the Estuary would have a direct 

effect on business, for the cafe and other 

shops that provide refreshments and icecreams. 

This would be a total waste of money to 

even consider this alternative route, when 

there are already two safe options to pass 

through these shops on the Main Rd. 

-Dave Cook (abridged) 

The Re-route Coastal Pathway group 

states they’re concerned about people 

coming out of shops, walking into cyclists. 

So for an approx 25m strip they consider 

dangerous, they are seeking to create a 

second pathway, hundreds of metres long, 

that would cost tens of millions of dollars. 

As (city council planning and delivery 

manager) Jacob Bradbury noted, issues 

relating to consents, constructability and 

property ownership have been previously 

considered and ruled out the feasibility of 

such projects. Contrary to popular belief, 

deeds land or King’s chain doesn’t extend 

along the whole proposed re-route. It is 

not possible to walk the length even at low 

tide – without entering private property, 

so much of the path would need to be 

built in the estuary with water on both 

sides! The environmental impacts would 

be devastating. 

Cyclists going too fast are an issue along 

the whole pathway (actually to a lesser extent 

around the shops where the busy café 

is well set back behind trees, lamp post, 

outdoor furniture). 

If it is really cyclists hitting people they 

are worried about, better to address this 

issue directly and more immediately eg 

more visible signage, introducing cycle 

speed limits, and moving fast cyclists to 

the road.

A FLOCK of about 50 whitefronted 

terns nesting near the 

cruise ship berth in Lyttelton 

Harbour will soon migrate 

after a successful hatching 

season. 

The number of terns in the 

area has increased significantly 

since last season, said Lyttelton 

Port Company environment 

and sustainability advisor 

Charlotte Jones. 

“It’s great to see them 

settling in here.” 

Nesting season lasts from 

October to February and when 

the birds migrate, Jones said 

some are likely to travel as far 

as Australia. 

“There were only a couple of 

nesting pairs last season,” she 

said. 

“We’ll just keep an eye on 

the birds and expect to see 

even more next year.” 

The terns are nesting in the 

disused wharf and rocky sea 

wall near the cruise berth. 

The species is categorised 

as an “at risk” species by the 

Department of Conservation. 

Jones said pest monitoring 

conducted by the port 

company has likely 

encouraged the growth of the 

colony. 

“There are reduced pests 

around the area which would 

increase the nesting success, 

as pests like possums, rats 

and mustelids will predate on 

chicks and eggs.” 

At least 20 chicks hatched by 

the end of December, she said. 

“It’s a really safe spot for the 

birds. 

“They just nest in amongst 

the rocks. They just gather a 

few stones and not much nest 

material, and just find little 

nooks and crannies.” 

Jones said the terns’ nests 

are located a safe distance 

from any disruptive port 

operations. 

The white-fronted tern is 

distinguished by its black cap 

and bill contrasted with its allwhite 

body. 

“I think that they’re a pretty 

striking little bird,” said Jones. 

White-fronted terns are 

SAFEGUARDING: A whitefronted 

tern with its chick at 

the end of the wharf. 

considered at risk by DOC 

due to declining numbers, 

but there is still a sizeable 

population in New Zealand. 

Jones said the port company 

is also exploring available 

options to create a better 

environment for seabirds in 

the area without interfering 

with daily operations. 

The port is also host to the 

common red-billed gull, which 

have built a similar-sized 

colony to the terns, as well 

as a small number of oyster 

catchers.

Lortan’s law: Playing for the team 

over personal milestones 

• By Sam Coughlan 

DESPITE BREAKING records 

this season, Heathcote batter 

Tyler Lortan isn’t driven by 

personal milestones. 

The 31-year-old has rattled off 

589 runs in the Christchurch 

Metro premier one-day competition 

in just six games – breaking 

the record set by Sydenham’s 

Bevon-John Jacobs in 2023. 

He has passed 50 in all but one 

of those innings, and his best 

knock was a massive 165 against 

Lancaster Park in the opening 

game, featuring 10 sixes. 

Lortan broke the record with 

exactly 100 not out off 84 balls to 

help Heathcote chase down 323 

against Burnside West Uni – his 

third ton of the season. 

He still has at least two games 

remaining to continue his form, 

with the last round of the league 

season and a semi-final – at least. 

Lortan said he wasn’t even 

aware he was close to the record. 

“I’ve just been focusing on 

what I can do in the moment to 

win games at cricket for the team 

I’m playing for. 

“I try and focus on that as 

much as possible.” 

HARD HITTER: Tyler Lortan bats for Heathcote against 

Burnside West Uni earlier in the season. 

PHOTOS: PAUL CORLISS 

He said he doesn’t play the 

game in hopes of achieving personal 

success. 

“What drives me really is, 

you know, sitting in a winning 

changing room and singing a 

winning song. 

“If I didn’t score any runs and 

we won the comp, I think I’d be 

pretty satisfied.” 

But with Lortan contributing 

heavily to Heathcote’s recent 

success, it ‘means everything’ 

to him. 

“It’s what’s driven me forever. 

“And it’s the reason I play the 

game, to make sure that, you 

know, I can do whatever I can to 

make sure my team’s in a good 

position.” 

Heathcote have five wins and 

one loss from their six one-day 

games to sit second in the table, 

only one bonus point behind 

league leaders Lancaster Park 

and have qualified for the 

semi-finals with a game to spare. 

A win this weekend against 

fifth-placed East Shirley would 

mean that semi will be played at 

their home ground of Heathcote 

Domain – where Lortan and fellow 

batter Dan Stanley have taken 

advantage of the small boundaries 

to score runs a-plenty. 

The match will be played on 

Saturday at Burwood Park with 

the first ball to be bowled at 

10.30am.

18 Bay Harbour News Wednesday February 7 2024

Morey a busy man indeed 

Carl Bonniface 

continues his series 

on Edward Morey’s 

heritage contribution 

BEFORE EDWARD Morey 

finished building Holy 

Trinity Church in 

Lyttelton, the 

foundation stone 

for St Cuthbert’s 

Anglican Church 

in Governors Bay 

had already been 

laid (January 

30, 1860). Both 

were designed by 

George Mallinson. 

Morey would have 

been putting the finishing 

touches to Holy Trinity and 

starting work on St Cuthberts 

at the same time – a busy man 

indeed. 

It took two years to construct 

the church because not long into 

the build, the turret and two 

gables gave way after wet weather 

and strong winds. Buttresses 

were added to stabilise the walls, 

which were made of cob faced 

with stone from the beach and 

from nearby Garlick’s Quarry. 

The white stone for the buttresses 

and window frames came from 

Ōtamahua Quail Island. Smaller 

stones worn smooth from the 

tides were carried up Church 

Lane to the building site by local 

women in their sacking aprons. 

These were used as cobblestones 

in the entrance porch. 

Morey was assisted with 

the timber work by Henry 

Firmston, whose grave is 

in the church cemetery. 

Over the ensuing years the 

church had a number of 

additions – in 1874 a chancel 

was added to the eastern end, 

increasing the seating capacity 

by 40. It included a magnificent 

stained glass window depicting 

the legend of St Cuthbert. Much 

later, in 1980, a sturdy stone vestry 

was built onto the south wall, 

which survived the February 22, 

2011 earthquake. Unfortunately, 

the rest of the church was badly 

damaged. 

It was decided to deconstruct 

the building (apart from the 

vestry) and start again, with 

new reinforced 

concrete foundations 

and 

block walls. 

The church was 

carefully reconstructed 

to look 

as it did before 

the earthquake. Due to the efforts 

of tradespeople and the local 

community, St Cuthberts stands 

proud once again. 

Despite everything nature has 

thrown at it, a statement about St 

Cuthberts from Bishop Harper at 

the laying of the foundation stone 

in 1860 has come to pass: “It 

would remain a blessing to the 

founders and their children’s 

children and endure as long as 

the everlasting hills by which it is 

surrounded”. 

But back to the hard-working 

Morey. In 1862, he moved to 

Okains Bay to build another Anglican 

church there – St John the 

Evangelist. The foundation stone 

was laid on January 1, 1863 by 

Elizabeth Torlesse, wife of Reverend 

Henry Torlesse, who was the 

driving force behind the project. 

The walls were built using creek 

boulders and locally quarried 

stone and were supported by five 

buttresses – a lesson perhaps 

learned from St Cuthberts. 

The buttresses and the Gothic 

style window frames were made 

of white stone from Ōtamahua 

Quail Island. An interesting 

design feature is the use of red 

bricks in the door and window 

arches, fired locally by the ever 

enterprising Morey. The slate 

roof was generously gifted by 

Mr J.E Thacker – the slate and 

the stained glass were the only 

imported materials. 


TREASURES FROM THE PAST 19 

HARD-WORKING: 

Edward Morey built both 

St Cuthbert’s Anglican 

Church in Governors 

Bay and St John the 

Evangelist in Okains Bay 

(below). 

The actual build took just five 

months and St Johns was ‘open 

for business’ on June 30, 1863, 

although the church was not 

consecrated until February 12, 

1882. The reason for this is not 

clear as the main condition of 

consecration, that of being debt 

free, was fulfilled in 1863 thanks 

to local contributions, liberal 

donations by friends in England 

and contributions from the Provincial 

Government. The grand 

total cost including fittings came 

to £554, 9s and 8p (NZ$180,000). 

St Johns was also badly damaged 

in the earthquake, but as 

with St Cuthberts, the community 

and tradespeople came to the 

rescue. They inserted metal rods 

into the existing walls, repaired 

and reset a lot of the original 

stone, brick and slate, and replaced 

the white stone framing 

around the restored 

east end stained glass 

window with lighter 

materials. 

A nice touch 

is the old stone 

framing is laid out 

as a landscaping 

feature. Once again 

a small community’s 

dedication saved an 

important historical 

building for future 

generations to enjoy.
