Summary

This hill needs some soil conversation measures different to this scheme! The dam is sited on a creek or depression (which probably leaks) half way down the hill, then overflows over steep ground to reach the next dam, which overflows by means of a "rill" down the remainder of the hill. A very poor type of water and soil conservation, but very common in Western Australia.
