Christchurch historian Richard Greenaway knows a thing or two about the dead - and the corners of the city in which they now dwell.
As part of the Christchurch Heritage Festival, he has been showing curious people around various cemeteries across the city and telling them the stories of how they lived and died.
He spoke to RNZ to explain how he became a Christchurch cemetery expert and discussed his Barbadoes St cemetery tour over the weekend.
