Callagiddy

It was later relocated "lock, stock and barrel" to the centre of the property, when the lease was expanded in 1918,[2] where it stands today.

In 1882 Dansy Powell arrived in the Gascoyne District with a survey party and shortly afterwards took up Meeragoolia Station.

He then sold Meeragoolia to Dan Matheson and took up the Callagiddy country, which was the first portion of the area between Carnarvon and Wooramel to be taken up and stocked.

Records show in 1905 the property was owned by Messrs Powell and McNish, who were running sheep on Callagiddy.

The property was running Dorper and Damara sheep along with cattle, and had diversified into growing sweetcorn, sorghum and sunflowers.

[15] The property currently only carries cattle and has area suitable for horticulture with good artesian water supply having a salt content of only 219 gr/gal or 2812 mg/litre.
