                    •    At the time of acquiring the land, they determined that the local brickworks had aligned their access
                         road incorrectly into the northern portion of their Lot (reportedly to preserve a pocket of clay located
                         further north). The northern Lot boundary was realigned into the present-day configuration to formally
                         vest the road encroachment to the brickworks. In return, the brickworks supplied bricks for
                         construction of their house as well as importing soil for use around the new house and assisted with
                         burying toilet cans as discussed in the below point.
                    •    As shown on Figure 14 over page Mrs Spicer also recollected the following:
                         -    a concentration of disused toilet cans (possibly 50 to 100 at the surface) were buried by the
                              brickworks at the request of the Spicers, along the western boundary to the north and adjacent
                              the cemetery.
                         -    land to the south-west of the site was historically a dairy farm.
                         -    around three or four mullock heaps (containing mostly broken glass) were located behind the
                              house area and in 1973 were bulldozed across the site to the east to flatten it out.
                         -    two intermittent springs were sometimes present, the first being close to the rear property line of
                              their house and present during wet weather where the ground was particularly wet and often
                              caused the mower to become stuck. The second longer lasting intermittent spring was located to
                              the north-east corner of the site and usually had water in it, although it may have been disrupted
                              as part of major drainage works completed during the Noosa Reserve low density residential
                              housing development that is present to the immediate east of the site.
