Located to the south of the waterway corridor, making up the balance of Lot 3 on SP862537, was an
area of grazed paddocks, which were fenced with predominately electric fencing with several
paddocks grazing horses. The paddocks contained scattered mature native canopy trees
characterised by Pink Bloodwood, Grey Gum (Eucalyptus propinqua), Brush Box, Swamp Box with
Flooded Gum (Eucalyptus grandis) present on the lower slopes within proximity to the waterway. The
