On Sunday 6th November, a mild sunny day in this extraordinarily wet spring, FNCB members gathered at the entrance to “Chepstowe” carefully parking on the gravel drive, the only dry place capable of supporting a vehicle. We were warmly welcomed by our host, Neville Oddie who then led our convoy to a parking area under the three large wind towers beside the Chepstowe – Pittong Road. Including the paddock opposite this is the highest point on the property and as Neville explained, is the top of a volcanic vent, part of Victorian Volcanic Plains Bioregion [VVP].
