The Ilam Homestead, home of the University of Canterbury Staff Club.
In the 1950s it served as the home of the Rector of what was then called Canterbury College.
In 1954 the then-Rector's daughter, Juliet Hulme and her friend Pauline Parker bludgeoned to death Parker's mother. This is the plot of the film Heavenly Creatures. A number of scenes in the film were filmed in the grounds.
