Manilla Branch Urges Narrow Stock Routes
At the last monthly meeting of the Manilla Farmers and Settlers branch the Tamworth P P Board was urged to reduce stock route widths when altering or creating routes. Rabbits on the routes were called a menace to neighboring landholders and speakers argued 5 chains wide would be more economical than a quarter of a mile. It was noted that more sheep now travel by motor lorry and that wide routes could waste good land.
