The Long Bush Sawmill (Braud, Small and Company, proprietors), Long Bush. This mill was erected in 1892. It is constructed of wood and iron, and contains breaking-down and breast benches, with planing and moulding machines. The machinery is driven by a sixteen horse-power steam engine, and the output is about 5,000 feet of dressed and undressed timber per day. Twenty-two persons are employed at the mill, which is connected by tramway with a yard at the Long Bush railway station, three miles distant.
