WA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 1 decade ago

Introduction: Abydos and Woodstock Reserves (Nos. 22626 and 22627) were formerly two adjoining pastoral properties in the Pilbara. Abydos homestead (no longer existent) was about 150 km south of Port Hedland and Woodstock homestead is approximately 20 km further south (Figure 1.1). The areas of the Reserves are 56,442 ha and 97,660 ha respectively, a total area of 154,102 ha. As they have been managed as a single reserve unit since the 1940s, they are hereafter referred to as the Abydos-Woodstock Reserve.
