Summary

Comments: Roy has gained co-operation from brother - neighbour WG Button. Some difficulty in getting grade lines to main creek owing to collapsed soil in middle of paddock but managed to get 2 centimetres fall every 30 metres. All lines unbroken, machinery access provided on south side due to overlapping banks. Average depth to clay 2 feet 6 inches to 3 feet.
