Glebe
The land was not suited to farming because of its topography and soils and the first European associated with it, the Reverend Richard Johnson famously described his land as "four hundred acres not worth four pence". Despite its limited use for agricultural purposes the timber was a valuable raw material and by the 1820s at least a substantial portion of the land in the vicinity of the study area had been cleared and fenced ready for sale.
