The general slope is to the south especially of the eastern half, which corresponds to the drainage being effected by south flowing streams. The western boundary is represented by the West Coast Range which presents a steep face to the west.

  • A Compilation of Place Names and Their Histories in Tasmania
    LA TROBE: Renamed Latrobe. LACHLAN: A small farming district 6 Km. south of New Norfolk. It is on the Lachlan Road, which runs beside a river of the same name. Sir John Franklin, in 1837, founded the settlement, and used the christian name of Governor Macquarie for the township. LACKRANA: A small rural settlement on Flinders Island. It is 10 Km. due east of Whitemark, over the Darling Range. A district noted for its dairy produce, it is also the centre of the Lackrana Wildlife Sanctuary. LADY BARRON: The main southern town on Flinders Island, 24 Km. south ofWhitemark. Situated in Adelaide Bay, it was named in honour of the wife of a Governor of Tasmania Sir Harry Barron. Places with names, which are very similar often, created confusion. LADY BAY: A small bay on the southern end of DEntrecasteaux Channel, 6 Km. east of Southport. It is almost deserted now except for a few holiday shacks. It was once an important port for the timber industry but there is very little of the wharf today. It has also been known as Lady's Bay. LADY NELSON CREEK: A small creek on the southern side of Dilston, it joins with Coldwater Creek and becomes a tributary of the Tamar River. The creek rises inland, near Underwood, and flows through some good farming country. It was an important freshwater supply in the early days of the colony. LAGOONS: An alternative name for Chain of Lagoons. It is 17 Km. south ofSt.Marys on the Tasman Highway. A geographical description of the inlet, which is named Saltwater Inlet, when the tide goes out it, leaves a "chain of lagoons".

  • John Coulson, Dilston
    Submission to the Legislative Council re the Eddystone Lighthouse and Rebecca Creek Land Grants John Coulson, Dilston Introduction First up I wish to thank the Committee for this opportunity to express my opinion on matters surrounding land grants to the TALC. It underlines the important role the Legislative Council, with most members independent, plays in legislative review. This is something I wholeheartedly support and I will fiercely oppose suggestions that the Council is obstructive and Tasmania only needs one House of Government. My Background To put my views in perspective, here is a brief outline my background. I am a 77 year old descendent of Captain George Coulson who landed in Tasmania in the early 1800s, was given a land grant where I live, and named it Dilston. The family has lived in this area ever since and, to our best knowledge, never had any conflict with Tasmanian Aborigines. I have no personal antipathy to the present Tasmanian Aborigines but object strongly to the activism being employed by a few in the TAC. I am a trained mathematics and science teacher who instructed in both the State and private school systems. At the same time I have been involved in dairying, then beef production at the family farm so have a background as both an employer of labour and someone skilled in small business. In the 1960’s and 1970s I was involved in a number of producer organizations and was active in State and Federal dairy politics. I retired from teaching in 1992 to be involved in tourism for a number of years both as an operator and administrator of groups of independent tourism businesses but sold the family property in 2000 and am now completely retired.

  • Kayak Trail Clarence
    Clarence Kayak Trail With individual maps and information PUBLISHED 2018 Welcome Welcome to the eastern shore of the Derwent River estuary where there is 191kms of coastline to paddle and explore. The coastline is very diverse with estuaries, salt marshes, tidal flats, ephemeral lagoons, surf beaches flanked by dunes, rocky headlands, urban and coastal living areas, as well as parts of the coast that are managed as protected areas and open spaces. There are important aquatic habitats including the Pitt Water Estuary, an internationally recognised wetland site. There are great views up and down the estuary including impressive vistas to kunanyi/Mt Wellington, Sullivans Cove, Alum Cliffs, Bruny Island, Iron Pot, Betsey Island, surf beaches, the Tasman Peninsula and Frederick Henry Bay. Paddling a kayak is one of the best ways to explore and enjoy the coastline and its many features of interest. However to do so, you need to be prepared and mindful that the conditions on the river and open seas can change quickly. The Clarence Kayak Trail provides information to help you plan for your kayak trip and make the best decision about where to go. It breaks the Clarence Kayak Trail into eight coastal sections and provides: • a brief description of the coastline; • where the launching points are; • an estimate of the distance you might paddle; • an indication of the grading or skill level for this section of the coastline; • the hazards you need to be aware of; • the facilities you can access off the Trail; and • the key points of interest along the coastline. This means you can choose the section that best suits your paddling skills, your available time and the type of recreational experience you are looking for.
