SCHEDULE.
NELSON LAND DISTRICT. — INANGAHUA COUNTY. — MANGLES AND BLACKWATER BLOCK.

Locality and Description.

This block is situated in the valleys of the Mangles and Blackwater Rivers, and is bounded on the east by Braeburn Settlement. The country comprises practically hilly land, covered with forest of chiefly red and brown birch, with a little matai and kahikatea on some of the lower slopes. The flats contain fair to good soil. Formation consists of calcareous shale and sandstone to the east, and conglomerate to the north-west. Altitude ranges from 550 ft. to 8,600 ft. above sea-level. The land is well watered, and the climate moderate. Each subdivision contains some flat land with a suitable homestead-site thereon. The country is well adapted for sheep-grazing, and will probably run fully three sheep to 2 acres when cleared and grassed. The nearest point of the block is three miles from the Town of Murchison (where there is a public school) by a good coach-road, and the main dray-road up the Mangles River to Braeburn Settlement runs through the areas. This road is formed, and the greater portion metalled. The road up the Blackwater River is unformed.

As witness the hand of His Excellency the Governor, this twenty-second day of August, one thousand nine hundred and eight.
