Unsurveyed Second-class Heavy-bush Land.

Shown on plan marked S.G. 52848 attached.

Locality and Description of Land.

Situated about twenty-two miles south of Westport, and twenty-six miles north of Greymouth, extending back from the coast to the lower slopes of the Paparoa Range, a distance of about six miles, the Village of Brighton being about midway on the coastal frontage of the block. The Village of Charleston is four miles south of the northern boundary, and is approached by a metalled road.

The block is bounded on the north by the Four-mile River, on the south by the Porarari River, on the east by the Paparoa Ranges, and on the west by the sea-coast.

The southern boundary. viz., the Porarari River, forms the boundary between the Westland and Nelson Land Districts. The adjacent country east and north is Crown lands.

The northern portion of the block consists generally of low ridges and spurs, with small flats near the streams. It is forest-clad, the timber consisting principally of birch interspersed with small rimu. The soil varies from poor to fair, on sandstone and cemented gravel formation, and is well watered.

The central and southern portions of the block consist generally of broken, hilly country, covered with forest consisting of black-birch, tawhero, and a little rimu, with heavy undergrowth. The soil is fair to good, limestone formation, well watered. There are numerous homestead-sites along the track and telegraph-line.

The eastern portion generally consists of ridges and spurs, with some flats along the rivers, covered with light bush, principally birch, with small pines on the flats. The soil varies from poor to fair, and country is well watered.

The western portion of the block, facing the sea, towards the south, is light-bush land, with good flats in places; fair to good soil. The central coast portion shows good limestone slopes, heavily timbered, with dense undergrowth. The northern portion of the coast country is poor soil, being rocky land interspersed with old gold-workings.

The Brighton-Greymouth track and telegraph-line pass through the block. The general altitude of the country varies from 300 ft. to 1,700 ft. above sea-level.
