miles north-west from Napier, and are accessible by a fairly
good dray-road. The land is hilly, and intersected by several
deep ravines; is all forest of an inferior quality, consisting
of rimu, white-pine, matai, birch, and miro, with an under-
scrub of mahoe, kotukutuku, karamu, &c., with abundance
of tataromoa (lawyer) vines. It is of a fairly good quality,
overlying limestone, generally well watered. Will make very
good pasture when cleared of bush.
