On Section 1B there are two good flats on the Waitotara River, estimated to contain 15 to 20 acres each, one of which has from 8 to 10 acres cleared and in grass, which would enable a homestead to be erected immediately. There is a dray-road already made for seven miles from Waitotara Township, and a 6ft. bridle-track formed on to the Waitotara River, dividing the two blocks. The nearest part of the land is about ten miles from Waitotara by the formed road.
