Small Grazing-run No. 181 and Section la, Block IX., Cape Campbell Survey District (grouped); 2.281 acres.

Pastoral land (2,143 acres), at an elevation varying from about 300 ft. to 1,800 ft. above sea-level. All hilly land; much of it of good quality, especially at the head of the Needles River. The spurs dip abruptly in the immediate vicinity of the creeks. This section is well covered with tussock, native grass, and a sprinkling of clover in places, some fern, with scrub and bush on a few of the hillsides and near the creeks. Watered by the Needles and Tachall's Creeks. The homestead-site for this run is Section 1A, Block IX. (described below), Cape Campbell Survey District, with which it is connected by a driving-road, about two miles and a half in length, following the south boundary of Small Grazing-run No. 167. A cart can be taken up the bed of the Needles River. The improvements (which are included in the price of the section) consist of 417 chains of boundary-fencing, valued at £156 10s.
