Damage to St John the Baptist Church in Latimer Square, where stone blocks have fallen and a steel bracing has been put in front to prevent any future damage. Photographed through the cordon fence.
A security fence stands behind fallen rubble and the charred remains of the McKenzie & Willis building on High Street. A portable toilet has been placed on the road next to a steel beam which is supporting the building.
A protest sign painted on a fence shows an image of the cathedral spire and the words "Save + restore, stone by precious stone!" The photographer comments, "The Christchurch Cathedral got very badly damaged in the earthquake. It was being demolished down to a safe level before a major protest managed to stop it going too far. There is still an ongoing debate on what to do with the Cathedral. In the meantime a cardboard cathedral made out of a steel framework and massive toilet roll tubes is being constructed close by. This is to the right of the protest about the closure of Christchurch schools".
