Mere stone in Mohope
Mere stone in Mohope
For walkers on Isaac's Tea Trail the lone mere stone is a poignant reminder of the time when land at Mohope was held under common ownership until around the late 1700s. It would also have acted as a marker for the established path for livestock to be driven. It also served to differentiate land use between summer hay crops and winter pasture.
