Just a short note to let NORCO members that we have released our latest publication “Lansdowne - chronicles of the early days”. Extracted from Manning River newspapers artricles, this book features reports on the Lansdowne district and its early settlers, the difficulties that faced these pioneers, the establishment of farms, timber industry, roads, schools, churches, halls, and their day to day life in this isolated yet rich farming district.
