This section is situated in the Wellington Fruitgrowers’ Block, in the Waikanae Valley. The access is from Waikanae Railway-station, which is about four miles and a half distant; two miles and a half are metalled dray-road, and the rest is formed sufficiently wide to enable a dray to be taken over it. The section comprises some nice flat and undulating land on the front, rising and becoming rather broken at the back. The whole lies well to the sun. The soil is of good quality in front, and fair at the back, resting on clay-and-rock formation. The forest is fairly heavy, comprising mainly rimu, matai, hinau, rata, tawa, birch (on ridges), &c., with a thick undergrowth of supplejack, keakea, horopito, ponga, &c. The section is well watered by springs and small streams. The improvements, which are out of repair, comprise 160 acres grassed, stumping, fencing, orchard, two-roomed cottage, old whare: total, £264 7s. 6d.
