Teddington is a very small community on Banks Peninsula at the head of Lyttelton Harbour / Whakaraupō. It sits on the junction of the road to Gebbies Pass and the road from Purau to Christchurch.
It dates back to the early settlers of Christchurch[3] but is now reduced to a pub and a restored working blacksmith's forge.[4]
