Farm Map Now Available for Viewing

Alan has combined GPS data with the latest aerial photograph of the farm to create a map of the property, a small image of which is reproduced below. You can always get to the full-size map by clicking the link at the top of the page. We'll add details as time goes by.


At present there is no legend, so here are some clues:

  • North is at the top
  • Solid pink is the lane from the road to the farmstead
  • Pink dotted lines are tractor trails and footpaths
  • Blue dotted lines denotes the creek and its tributaries
  • Yellow denotes the boundary fences
  • Circles are an incomplete inventory of the old growth trees
