Arrangement

The plans in this sequence have been brought together from a range of sources and therefore do not represent a comprehensive list of all plans created by the Christchurch Drainage Board.

These plans are therefore listed with those which have been digitised at the beginning of the sequence and then moving into order of plan number where possible with some later plans being in chronological order.

It is likely that further plans will be identifed and these will be added to the end of this sequence.

Existence and Location of Copies

Some of the plans in this sub-series have been digitised. Links to those digitised are available as part of each individual record.
