Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Of course, you get the best views of Lyttelton Harbour from the Summit Road, Bridle Path and the summits above Diamond Harbour on Banks Peninsula. But the rose garden around the Upham Memorial Clock Tower is a great place which offers nice views and you do not have to walk very far, and it really is just a short stroll from the town centre and a minute up a steep stone staircase.

The Town Clock is dedicated to Dr. Charles Hazlitt Upham (1863-1950), gratefully and lovingly named "The Little Doctor". He dedicated 52 years of his life to the community and was acclaimed as the most practical Christian in New Zealand. It was said "he will take nothing from the poor but will dispense his last blanket to keep them warm". His nephew Charles Upham, born in 1908, was New Zealand's most decorated soldier.

This nice place is located above the site of Lyttelton's former gaol.
