• 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.

Historic, Aesthetic, Representativeness and Rarity
• Located in Warren National Park; • Large karri tree (Eucalyptus diversicolour), and; • Tree has large bulbous outgrowth around trunk about 10 metres above ground.
This tree has been named after Marianne North, an English artist who visited the area and painted this distinctive tree in 1880. Marianne was born in England in 1839, daughter of Frederick North, Liberal MP for Hastings. As a young girl she developed a talent for drawing. She travelled with her father, and after his death she devoted her life to painting flowers in their natural habitat, travelling widely and often ending considerable discomfort. During the 1870s she travelled to the United States of America, Canada, Jamaica, Brazil, Japan, Sarawak, Java and Sri Lanka. She stopped in India for 15 months, producing over 200 paintings. After a successful exhibition in London, she presented her paintings to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew. In 1880, following a suggestion by Charles Darwin, Marianne travelled to Australia and New Zealand. After touring each of the colonies, she arrived in Albany in November 1880. Her visit to the South West region inspired a number of paintings, one of which is of this very distinctive tree, now called the Marianne North Tree. After this trip she continued to travel, in 1883 visiting the Seychelles and in 1884 painting plants in Chile. During her lifetime Marianne North produced over 800 paintings. These are mostly housed in the Marianne North Gallery in Key Gardens. She died in Gloucester in 1890, aged 60. A copy of Marianne North’s painting is displayed in the Pemberton Visitor Centre

Aesthetic and Scientific
This stand of trees is located on the east side of the South West Highway about 10kms north from the Manjimup townsite. The stand of trees has some very mature examples of Blackbutt.
Notes derived from http://www.featuretimbers.com.au/blackbutt.html These Blackbutt trees are a remnant of natural bush. When the highway was due to be widened private property for the road verge on west side was donated to preserve stand of Blackbutt on east side. Blackbutt (eucalyptus patens) is one of the taller eucalypts, growing up to 40-45 meters high. It is one of the least flammable eucalypts and usually survives moderate forest fires, although the base of the tree becomes blackened, giving the tree its name. The Blackbutt tree itself resembles the jarrah, but is relatively scarce as it was a favourite timber for farmers, railway wagons, bridge building, and flooring owing to its durability and fire resistant properties. A large portion of the remaining Blackbutt trees are contained in reserves and its plants are highly regarded as honey trees. Also known as the Yarri, WA Blackbutt, or Swan River Blackbutt, the timber of this tree looks good, and has more of an even colour than other species. Plantation Blackbutt is a light yellow colour and even-grained, while native re-growth Blackbutt has much more variation.

Point D’Entrecasteaux is named after Bruny D’Entrecasteaux, a French explorer who visited the southern coastline of Western Australia in the 1790s. The Point is an important feature in the D’Entrecasteaux National Park. It is a popular destination for walkers and the beaches for fisherman. The cliffs can be dangerous as was found by a young man in the 1970s who fell down one of the cliffs and broke his leg. A brave rescue was needed to get him extricated from a difficult position to the top of the cliffs and medical help.

Constructed from 1930
Aesthetic, Representativeness, Social and Historic
Windy Harbour comprises a settlement of small simply designed houses built from second hand materials with little to no architectural input.
These notes have been derived from Windy Harbour Settlement by Dave Evans 1992. After the settlement of the Northcliffe area in the 1920s people began to be attracted to Windy Harbour for day trips for picnics and fishing. As Windy Harbour is a sheltered spot from the Southern Ocean it was soon recognized as a superior fishing spot. One of the first tracks into Windy Harbour was pushed through by the Ladhams family. However, this track was difficult to traverse owing to steep sand dunes. The Manjimup Road Board took on the task to provide a better track with a more direct route. The builders apparently received 50 pounds for their effort. As this track again proved inaccessible at certain times of the year it became known as “The Fifty Pound Tragedy” shortened overtime to Tragedy Track. Many stories arise from long term residents about getting to Windy Harbour in spring and winter through he notorious bogs. Visitors to Windy Harbour grew with the increasing ownership of motor vehicles and families began to camp for longer periods in tents and rough huts. These huts in the late 1930s began to get more enduring until one day Roy Dunlop decided to stay as a permanent resident. Roy was a well known identity in the area who took people for fishing trips in his boat. The first person to build a fishing hut for holiday stays was Aubrey Sheffield who came from Pemberton. He was soon followed by others who began to cart in building materials that were usually second hand such as timber offcuts or odd sheets of corrugated iron. Second hand furniture was used in what has been described as rough lodgings. After World War II the onset of more leisure time and increasingly reliable motor cars led to more huts at Windy Harbour being erected. By the 1950s about 80 dwellings had been constructed but the owners (some said squatters) had no legal entitlements over the land and there was no planning for the building sites. The local authorities decided this situation could not persist and organized development and administrative system under the Windy Harbour Progress Committee was introduced in 1953 and ratified in 1956 by the Minister for Lands EK Hoar the Member for Warren. This allowed building controls and proper landing surveys for the settlement. The road to Windy Harbour was sealed in 1970 but even though this allows very easy day trips from Northcliffe the overall services in the settlement have not overly changed. There is no shop or liquor store, both held in abhorrence by the early lease holders, and living is still very simple in nature. Windy harbour is situated very close to Point D’Entrecasteaux and is not encompassed by the Point D’Entrecateaux National Park.

Historic and Representativeness
Wye Plains Stockmen’s Hut was used by the Muir family during the annual droving of cattle to the summer pastures at the coast. The Muirs were pioneer farmers in the Manjimup area. The first Muirs, Andrew and Elizabeth, came to WA in 1844 and settled at Forest Hill, near Mount Barker. Too of their five sons, Andrew and James went on to establish Lake Muir and Fernhill respectively. (Refer Fernhill Homestead, Central Ward and Lake Muir Homestead, East Ward). Thomas and John came to Deeside in 1852. (Refer Deeside Homestead, East Ward). As the family interests spread through the South-West in the 1850s and 1860s, the Muirs built a network of roads and bridges to move their cattle and to send produce to a shop they established in Albany which was managed by their son, Robert. In the winter months the Muirs grazed their cattle on their properties, while in summer they drove the cattle down to their coastal leases for grazing. Deeside was known at one time as the largest privately owned dairy farm in WA. The Muirs are said to have brought the first Angus and Hereford Cattle into Western Australia The Wye Plains Hut is said to be in excellent condition. It is a fine example of a stockman’s hut, one of the best in the region. It is located in the DEC estate, but is maintained for camping by the traditional users.

The history of the name of Yanmah was supplied by the Department of Land Information. Located in the forested area of the south west, Yanmah is situated 320 km south of Perth and 20 km west north west of Manjimup. It is located in the midst of an area taken up for the Group Settlement Scheme in the 1920's, and was conceived in 1922 following interest from people wishing to erect stores to supply the needs of the group settlers. A subdivision scheme was developed by Surveyor W Hepple Brown, and the name "Janninup", the Aboriginal name of the area, was suggested by him for the townsite. The alternative name of "Mitchelldean", after the then Premier was also suggested, but Surveyor Brown then nominated the name Yanmah, an Aboriginal word meaning "go ahead" or "go quickly"(Brown had obtained the word from Aborigines whilst working in the Kimberley). The townsite was gazetted as Yanmah in January 1923. However, in 2005 there is little to recognize that a ‘town’ ever existed. Owing to the failure of the group settlement the town of Yanmah did not develop beyond the community hall. This hall was originally constructed as the Glenoran Hall in the 1920s and then relocated to Yanmah. However, as many timber buildings are recycled in the region so has the destiny of this hall. The hall has, since being assessed in the original Municipal Heritage Inventory in 1995, been moved to private property. It is well set back from the road and has been changed significantly from its original form and use.
