Out Westwood Way, Tasmania

A lovely drive was taken the other day to a country area called Westwood.  My husband's G Grandfather had property out that way, but his house burnt down apparently, and I have no idea where he went after that.  It's rather a dead-end story really!



The Church of England at Hagley in the distance and a photo zoomed in.







Facing into the sun doesn't always made for a good photo, the one below to me has interesting colour.



A farm house.


You can see the Westwood area with dotted red marks.

Near Westwood, Tasmania. Australia

Westwood is not far from Launceston towards the west.
My husbands Ancestors lived there, and Samuel was born in England in 1789, his wife Margaret, was born in 1820 in England the daughter of a Soldier.
A big age difference.  People today would say he's a cradle snatcher :)

Westwood is a farming area.




At a farm gate there is this statue done with a chainsaw.


Back when I took this photo there had been a lot of rain - more than I can say for now.
