Section 10, Block VI.; 82 acres.

Agricultural and pastoral land, at an elevation varying between 150 ft. and 200 ft. above sea-level. The agricultural portion (57 acres) consists of flat land, most of which has been cultivated, and is in English grass, laid down many years ago and now much run out. The pastoral portion (25 acres) is the broken land near the creeks, steep terrace-faces, &c., which are in tussock and native grasses, with an intermixture of English grass in places. There is no permanent water, though there is usually a supply in some of the water-holes near the Needles Road. Situated on the new deviation of the Blenheim-Kaikoura Road, north of and adjoining the Needles Road, and thirteen miles and a half from Seddon Railway-station (one mile unformed).
