Darrell and Lee Latham were living and working in Dunedin at the time of the Canterbury earthquakes. Remember what Sumner was like after the earthquakes with its broken roads and utilities, roadside shipping containers, and cracked homes and businesses? Long before the earthquakes, Darrell had worked in Sumner as a teacher and the couple’s three adult daughters started their schooling there. John Garlick Builders completed the work in 2013/14 while Darrell and Lee shuttled to and from Dunedin and Christchurch. We love the village atmosphere here.”Passers-by often stop to admire their home and garden and their hard work has been rewarded with local garden awards every year since 2016.
