Clifton Settlement is situated in South Otago, and can be reached from Balclutha and Waiwera, both of which are railway-stations on the main southern trunk line. The distance from the Town of Balclutha is from eleven to fifteen miles, by a formed road which is metalled for most of the way. From Waiwera the distance to the settlement is from five to eight miles, by formed and metalled road. The settlement has a frontage to the Clutha River, on which a steamer plies. The steamer is capable of carrying grain, wool, &c. The settlement comprises nice easy rolling downs and ridges intersected by shallow gullies. Nearly the whole area is capable of being cultivated. The land has been very well treated in the past, and very little cropping has been done on it. Most of the area is now in old pasture. The general quality of the land is very good, and the sections are suitable for the production of root, oat, and grass crops. A considerable area at the northern end would grow wheat. The altitude is from 80 ft. to 300 ft. above sea-level. The aspect is northerly and easterly.
