The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 65

Halcombe

Halcombe

Is the first township on the Manchester Block, and the land round about is chiefly devoted to farming, like all the rest of this block. At present, it has little claim to beauty; the recent settlement of it has not allowed time for the ground to be thoroughly cleared. Probably in a few years time it will be full of beauties. There is a good hotel, the offices of the Town Board, State School, Banks, and the Emigrant and Colonial Aid Corporation are the principal buildings. There is a Rood refreshment room at the railway station, where a comfortable meal may be procured.
