Section 7, Block IX.; 294 acres.

Agricultural and pastoral land, at an elevation varying between 100ft. and 900 ft. above sea-level. This section comprises 150 acres of agricultural land, of which an area of about 48 acres is good, improvable swamp, and the remainder flat and downs laid down in grass about twenty years ago, and now much run out; also 144 acres of easy to very steep pastoral hills, in tussock and native grasses. Probably there is permanent water in the swamp. Situated on the main road between Blenheim and Kaikoura, and fifteen miles distant from Seddon Railway-station, adjoining the proposed township. The improvements (which are included in the price of the section) consist of 136 chains of boundary and other fencing., valued at £54 2s. 6d.
