Woodlands

Woodlands, Parua Bay, is a farm of some 500 acres situated In a pleasant valley. The homestead and other farm bullings are picturesquely placed near the main road. The present owner, Mr. H. L. Squires, purchased the property in 1895 from Mr. S. A. Miller, who removed to the Waikato. The land extends on both sides of the creek for nearly two miles and is partly sown in permanent grass. There is a good orchard, which has been recently extended. The schoolhouse site given by Mr. Miller is on the property.
