Assessment for Watermark Kilns – the Bell Tobacco Farm, Northcliffe
January 2005
This tobacco farm (fmr) is one of a number of tobacco farms set up in the
Manjimup district just before World War II. In 2005 it continues to
operate as a farm but like others in the district, tobacco fell by the way
many decades ago owing to both economic and product unreliability.
