Ashburton Courthouse

Ashburton Courthouse, New ZealandThis is the courthouse in Ashburton near Christchurch on the South Island of new Zealand. It is a very plain building with modest decoration including a stepped roofline, free-standing lamps on either side of the entrance and a low wall with a metal railing.

A plaque honouring the opening of the courthouse on 3rd May 1938 lists Government Architect, J T Mair, as the designer.
