15th March 2009

We first visited the area with a list of 3 new sections for sale. But then we noticed an 'Urgent Sale' sign on one of the two sections that had already been sold. We think this was the first section to have been sold and to us it seemed to be the best. No house had yet been built on it. So we bought it!

It was about 0.9 hectare of grass, bramble and gorse on the top of a sandhill, right next to a working sand quarry. There were two large bunny holes and a gully full of more blackberries, the odd native tree and no doubt lots more bunnies and hares.

The following photos are a series of shots from the centre of the section. The first one is pointing north and then turning round in a clockwise direction.

The only house built so far

The last remaining bit of sand hill to be removed (we think)

Due east with the driveway

More or less south

To the west, with the top of the Island in the distance

And back to the drive
