 Description of Bloods Creek Bore & Stockyards

Located at a 3 ways junction between Eringa, Abminga, and Mt Dare, stands Bloods Creek Bore (operated by windmill) with 2 tanks and stockyards. The bore required heavy drilling equipment which was provided by the government. The pump was operated by a huge windmill necessary due to the prevailing winds being only very light.
