London Street and Norwich Quay have a comprehensive range of commercial and public buildings that contribute to the Lyttelton Township Historic Area. As the site of the Great Fire, many of these buildings rose from ashes to house a comprehensive range of businesses linked to hotel buildings. Explore London, Canterbury, Dublin, and Oxford Streets without leaving New Zealand, and sneak down quirky nooks and crannies.
