[3] The property had been established in 1874 by William Silas Pearse, his brother George, and Thomas Little[4] after they had conducted an expedition in the area.
When advertised, it occupied an area of 639,460 acres (258,780 ha) and was stocked with 13,147 sheep, 200 cattle and 70 horses.
Improvements included 245 miles (394 km) of fencing dividing the property into 17 paddocks.
[9] At auction, property and stock were purchased by the brother, George Pearse, who lived in Fremantle, for the sum of £20,800.
[16] In 2013 the manager of Meka, Bob Grinham, announced his intention to fence off 10,000 hectares (24,711 acres) creating a single paddock where stock would be safe from dog attack.
