SCHEDULE.

WELLINGTON LAND DISTRICT.—LOWER HUTT BOROUGH.
Belmont Survey District.—Hutt Valley Settlement.

The subdivision now under offer is situated to the south of Woburn Railway-station, and lies between the new Railway Workshops and the Waiwetu Stream. Bell Road, which traverses the block, will shortly become the main thoroughfare between the Hutt Valley and the eastern bays, and will provide direct access to the Woburn Station and to the industrial area.

The block has been subdivided into residential sites varying in area from 20 to 30 perches, and having adequate frontages. The soil is of a rich alluvial nature, suitable for gardening, whilst the shingle subsoil over a considerable portion of the area makes for better surface-water drainage.

The engineering works comprising street construction, storm-water drainage, and sewerage are well on the way towards completion, and, with the addition of gas and electric lighting, provide all the amenities that can be desired.

A recreation-ground of approximately 4 acres has been laid out in the centre of the block, and a 5-acre school-site has been provided just south of the area under offer.

Along the banks of the Waiwetu Stream a fine parade has been created to preserve for the public free access to the water and the beautification of this thoroughfare and the banks of the stream is now being dealt with by the recently appointed landscape gardener to the Hutt Borough.

NOTE.—The attention of intending purchasers is drawn to easements for public purposes as shown on the plan. Intending purchasers are also advised that a building-line restriction will operate in case of sections fronting streets of a less width than sixty-six feet.
