Location: | 18-285100. Two kilometres south of Paradise in the Barham Valley. | |
Access: | Barham River Road. | |
Ownership: | Private land. | |
Geomorphology: | The narrow Barham Valley includes occasional wider alluvial sectors where lateral rather than vertical erosion has been predominant. These typically occur upstream from outcrops where resistant arkose beds strike across the trend of the stream. At this site, a terrace ten metres above stream level marks an abandoned incised meander. The old valley edge is conspicuous by the blunting of spur ends. | |
Significance: | Local. The site is useful to demonstrate a process of valley widening. |
