Richmond History Group

The Richmond History Group is based at Avebury House. The group maintains a collection of books, photographs and other memorabilia illustrating and recording the history of Avebury House and the development of the surrounding suburb of Richmond. We seek to expand the collection and have begun a project to digitise items from the collection and make them available online. This is a work-in-progress and we will be adding items to this site from now on.

If you have photographs or other material concerning Richmond’s past, we would love to hear from you. Perhaps you would like to donate items to the collection, or allow us to view the material and if suitable, borrow items for recording and adding to our digital archive. We would of course return the items to you in the same condition as we received them.

If you would like to learn more about the group, or become involved, please contact Andrea at 381-6615.

Hadfield Family History

This document was prepared by Roger Hadfield for a family reunion which was held in Richmond in 2016. It traces the story of the Hadfield family, who were early residents in Richmond. Joseph Hadfield, his wife Ann and two children came to Christchurch from England in 1862. In 1865 Joseph purchased eight acres of land on Stanmore Rd when the area was outside the city and was still swamp-land; in the 1863 Black Map the area is described as ‘swamp, raupo and tussock’. Later he built a large two-storey house here with a considerable garden at 300 Stanmore Rd. The weeping elm on Stanmore Rd by the supermarket is the only surviving remnant.

Although the house is gone, the Hadfield family retain a strong connection to Richmond. Our thanks to the family who have given their permission for us to include this valuable document here.

요즘 건강 관리에 더 신경을 쓰게 되면서 여러 서비스를 비교해봤는데, 이번 선택이 정말 좋았습니다. 관리사의 태도와 기술 모두 훌륭했고, 집에서 편하게 받을 수 있어 좋았습니다. 특히 오산출장마사지는 기대 이상으로 만족스러웠습니다.

상품권소액결제 서비스는 급하게 소액이 필요할 때 매우 유용하다고 느꼈습니다. 간편한 절차로 빠르게 결제가 가능하고, 복잡한 인증 없이 진행되는 점이 특히 편리했습니다. 처음 이용하는 사람도 쉽게 이해할 수 있는 구조라 접근성이 뛰어납니다.
