Full Description

Now large dispersed settlement centred to GR Torboll on Forbes, Torrebol on Gordon - HAW 8/2004.

No trace of a settlement was evident around this location when a walkover survey was carried out in April 2009. However this could be due to the presumed township being widely scattered. <1>
