The road for the most part is good and fairly level. The soil is good, being sandy loam on clay formation, and is well suited for sheep or dairy farming. Generally speaking, the country is undulating to hilly, and very little is at all broken. Elevation above sea-level averaging nearly 1,000 ft. Rainfall about the average.
