Canterbury Club, Historic gentlemen's club in central Christchurch, New Zealand
The Canterbury Club building exhibits Italianate architectural elements at the corner of Cambridge Terrace and Worcester Street in central Christchurch.
Urban professionals established the Canterbury Club in 1872 as an alternative to the existing Christchurch Club, which primarily served wealthy landholders.
The Canterbury Club maintains traditional dress codes and customs that reflect the professional standards of its founding members from the nineteenth century.
Following extensive structural reinforcement completed in 2012, the Canterbury Club now functions as a meeting venue for members and private events.
Two Category II heritage items remain outside the club: a restored 1900 gas light and an original horse hitching post from the 1870s.
