Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox church Cashmere Hills Presbyterian Church is an Presbyterian church in Christchurch, New Zealand. It is registered as Category II by Heritage New Zealand.[1]

History

In 1924 land was purchased for a Presbyterian church in the hills.[1] Cecil Wood was commissioned to design the church, however his business partner Richard Harman oversaw the construction of the church.[2] The foundation stone was laid in September 1928 and the church was opened and dedicated on 24 August 1929.[3]

Canterbury earthquakes and restoration

The church sustained damage during the September 2010 Christchurch earthquake and also in the February 2011 Christchurch earthquake but it has since been repaired.[2] The Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (CERA) had assessed the structure as 3% of the earthquake code and wanted to demolish it. Michael King, a director of the structural engineering joint venture Miyamoto and Cardno, successfully challenged this assessment through submitting five reports.[4]
