A view down Armagh Street where a cordon checkpoint has been set up and guarded by the Army. On the road side are rubbish bins and road cones to divert the traffic. Part of the Canterbury Provincial Council Buildings can be seen.

The Oxford Terrace Baptist Church with cracks on the front facade. Bracing has been placed under the roof and at the front of the church to support the building and limit further damage from aftershocks.
