Small Grazing-run No. 175, Block IX.; 1,490 acres.

Agricultural and pastoral land, between sea-level and an elevation of 1.300 ft. This run comprises 64 acres of good agricultural land near the frontage, and 1,426 acres of pastoral land. Of the pastoral portion, an area of 300 acres is fair to good hills and downs (part ploughable) in tussock ana native grass, 1,126 acres being more broken and higher country, rather bare in places, and scrubby and rough near the creeks on the seaward side. The main ridge is limestone. The whole of the run is in tussock, native grass, and fern. There is probably permanent water in some of the creeks. Situated on the main road between Blenheim and Kaikoura, and seventeen miles distant from Seddon Railway-station. The improvements (which are included in the price of the run) consist of 182 chains of boundary and other fencing, valued at £89 16s. (Note.—The public shall have the free right of ingress, egress, and regress over the main road now in use, which passes through the section, until the road-deviation has been formed and opened for traffic.)
