Just love these old Christchurch photos!!! Here’s Armagh Street with Riccarton Bush in the background @ 1860. This photo was taken by Dr. A.C. Barker from the roof of the Provincial Council Buildings.

Victory Day – The End of WWII – Colombo Street
You can almost hear the roar of the rejoicing here in Colombo Street on the 15th August 1945 at the news that World War II was finished with the surrender of Japan. It’s good to see as a city we still know how to party and be victorious, even while and after facing huge odds …
