Banks Peninsula
Banks Peninsula has two categories of heritage buildings protected (P) and notable (N). The protected buildings are those which are also registered by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust as either category 1 or 2. Buildings listed as notable have not been registered by NZHPT but have been considered worthy of preservation based on the following criteria:
1. Historical Significance – The building, object or area has a strong association with significant people or events, or is important as a reflection of social patterns of its time.
2. Architectural Significance – The building, object or area is a notable example of a particular style of architecture or period or display of craftmanship, artistry and/or technology of intrinsic interest or, by virtue of its design, conforms to a past or present sense of beauty.
3. Group Significance – Individual buildings, objects or areas that combine to form an area of community importance or historical or architectural merit. Items within the group need not be significant in themselves but their significance is such that their loss or change would diminish the significance of the group.
4. Landmark Significance – The building, object or area makes an important contribution to the identity of the town, neighbourhood, street, or road in which it is sited by virtue of its situation, silhouette, bulk, colour or texture.
5. Archaeological or Scientific Significance – The building, object or area is of archaeological or scientific importance.
In addition to listing of individual buildings there are two Historic Areas : Akaroa Historic Area recognised by both the Plan and NZHPT
Lyttelton Township Historic Area registered by NZHPT
