Description:

Very rare colonial engraving of Gundemaine Station, Liverpool Plains, New South Wales. At the time the station covered 300 square miles and had 12,000 head of cattle.

From the diary of John Gilbert, collector for John Goild:
Gundemaine was some eight miles northwest of the present town of Narrabi, on the north bank of the Namoi, just below the mouth of Brigalow (or Bohena Creek). John Gould visited there in 1839,  just south is his “Gummel Gummel” (the parish of Gommel) where he observed Little Woodswallows Artamus minor breeding (Gould 1865). From his diary it appears that John Gilbert stayed at Gundemaine for about a week.
