History

In 1905, the Lane brothers settled on a piece of land on the hill between Flagstaff Gully and Lindisfarne and cleared the land and built a humpy. Shortly after, they spent two days splitting wood and built fence along the gully. A house named "The Turning" was built within the following years. By 1911, a farm had been built by a man named Hal and an orchard was built below the humpy that same year.
