When the band rotunda was built in 1900 two local brass bands, one Maori and the other European, played in the evenings during the tourist season. The rotunda features cast-iron filigree work, a Victorian break-through that became widely used for constructing garden buildings and furniture. Important people who came to town used the rotunda to deliver speeches: Prime Minister Richard Seddon (1845-1906) once spoke here for an hour and a half!

Encaustic Tiles of Christchurch Cathedral in 2011

Picture
Title: Encaustic Tiles with Fylfot. Order No.: A1-3179. Location: Christchurch Cathedral, New Zealand.
These photo were taken days before the devastating 2011 earthquake which levelled Christchurch, New Zealand and destroyed the cathedral.  

THE FYLFOT
The Fylfot or swastika is an ancient symbol which has been found in the ruins of Troy, Egypt, China and India. In the Sanskrit language svastika came from svasti, meaning property, from the belief that the symbol brought good luck. The fylfot was a favourite symbol of the Victorians. These encaustic (meaning 'burnt in') tiles were imported from England and the wall of the cathedral construction in 1885.
