District Lands and Survey Office,
Wellington, 23rd September, 1902.

NOTICE is hereby given that the undermentioned land will be open for selection on lease in perpetuity, at this office, on Tuesday, 4th November, 1902, under the provisions of “The Land for Settlements Consolidation Act, 1900,” and amendments.

SCHEDULE.

WELLINGTON LAND DISTRICT.—CASTLEPOINT COUNTY.—REWA SURVEY DISTRICT.—LANGDALE SETTLEMENT.

First-class Land.

This section is comprised of 15¼ acres of flat, 5 acres of swamps and lagoons, balance, 14¼ acres, easy sloping hills. The altitude of the flat is 55 ft. and the highest point of the hills 100 ft. above sea-level. The land is under English and native grasses and vegetation, including a good deal of rushes. The soil is of a clayey nature, which cakes in summer. This fault will be lessened when the land is properly drained and cultivated. The only permanent water is the Whareama River, on the other side of the reserve along the river-bank. Water is obtainable, probably, by sinking wells. The section is fenced along the southern boundary and Langdale Road. The improvements (which go with the land) are: Half-value of 40 chains of fencing adjoining Blairlogie (four plain and one barbed wire, posts 8 ft. apart); 2 chains along Langdale Road (seven plain wires, posts 8 ft. apart); and 28½ acres grassing: the whole valued at £37. Access is by the Langdale Road, a quarter of a mile to the junction with the Blairlogie Road, thence twenty-five miles and three-quarters to Masterton; to Te Nui, nine miles by the Langdale and Masterton-Te Nui Roads.
