Latitude -36.8075000 (36° 48′ 27″ S)
Longitude 144.7325000 (144° 43′ 57″ E)

About 1.5km to the east of the Rochester Rd about 12km north of Heathcote, the site is on the corner with Saftroms Ln. There is good habitat here, though it’s mostly fenced off farmland, the woodland is largely intact on the south side of the lane, a small creek that is often dry may offer some water for the birds.

No camping is advised here
