NZASM Heritage Court The criss-cross network of pathways etched in the landscape , as is evident in the archival aerial photographs , was captured in the new landscape design of the Heritage Court . Exposed aggregate footpaths , lawn and informal clusters of existing and newly planted trees will reinstate the space back to its authentic pattern .
The original well has been restored and replaces the plaque and water feature as well as the formal pathway system that was introduced in the 1980 renovation .
A buffer zone of indigenous trees wrap around the heritage court , in order to embrace the space and to screen the neighbouring development as far as possible .
