Beautiful grassland. High conservation values. Full of birds. Not open to the public. This one's just for nature...amidst the busy city. Grasslands in between industrial warehouses. Preserved for unique grasses that represent the past history of the at4a before development. Some stone walls preserved nearby. Need to walk to. Open paddock grasslands.
