DPA Architects have been appointed by the Christchurch Anglican Church Property Trustees to oversee the restoration and structural upgrading of some 20 heritage churches in the Christchurch region following the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes.
St Paul's Church, Papanui, involved the restoration and structural upgrading of one of Christchurch’s significant heritage churches. St Paul’s dates from 1887 and was designed by the pre-eminent Christchurch Gothic Revival architect, Benjamin Mountfort.
Work included restoration of interior timber work, re-roofing including laying timber shingles on the tower and providing disabled access and facilities. The project was the recipient of a Christchurch Civic Trust restoration award in 2013.
