Bunbury, in Western Australia, 1857. 'The improving little sea-port town of Bunbury...is pleasantly situated at the mouth of the Leschenault Estuary, into which three rivers discharge their waters. There is much good land in the neighbourhood, and many thriving farms; and between it and the Vasse (celebrated for its butter and potatoes), and as far as Augusta, forty miles south of the Vasse, the Tuart timber, for which an Admiralty contract has been recently taken, mainly grows...a considerable breadth of land in the southern districts, near Bunbury, has been within the last few years brought under cultivation, and produces excellent crops of corn'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
