Anthony Lagoon

The station when combined with neighbouring Eva Downs occupies an area of 9,349 square kilometres (3,610 sq mi) and has a carrying capacity of approximately 60,000 head of Brahman cattle.

[1] The station is situated about 1,000 kilometres (621 mi) from Darwin so the majority of stock are trucked out for live export, generally to South East Asia.

The flooded lake country around the permanent water sources support stands of Coolibah, Lignum, Bluebush, Verbine and tussock grassland.

[8] More floods occurred in 1901 when the waters in the creek were over 1 mile (2 km) wide and running very so quickly that it was too dangerous to even attempt a crossing.

[10] In 1935 the property was owned by Mr. J. M. Newman, an engineer, who had other pastoral interests including the Cabulcha stud farm in Queensland used to breed bulls for use in his Territory herds.

[14] In 2006, Anthony Lagoon and Eva Downs stations were both sold by the current owner, Heytesbury, to Australian Agricultural Company.
