Historic and Representativeness
• Overgrown forest environment;
• A number of timber posts, some with carved notches in them,
and;
• Sundry timber items, and fencing materials.
Very little remains of the Brockman Cattleyards. They are thought to
have been built by the Brockman family, who were the first settlers in the
Pemberton district. Edward Revely Brockman took up land on the banks
the Warren River in the early 1860s. He married Capel Bussell in 1861
and they had nine children. Brockman became a leading citizen in the
district, and he was the first Chairman of the Lower Blackwood Road
Board.
In the late 1800s and beyond the Brockmans ran cattle on their
properties, and it was the custom to herd the cattle and sheep down to the
coast each year for summer grazing. This site is the remains of one of the
holding yards used during the cattle drive.
