History

The coastal stock route provided a link between the Swan River Colony and Champion Bay and was used for the moving of stock between the two locations. Augustus Gregory described it as “better suited for a line of communication as regards water, grass and a freedom from rocky ground or dense scrub than any of my former routes.”
