Description: Four slab huts with raupo thatched roofs and slab chimneys in a clearing in New Zealand bush, with tree ferns and cabbage trees, as well as other large trees and dense bush in the background. There is a high rocky bluff to the right and tall hills in the background. Smoke is coming from the chimneys of the left- and right-most huts, there are steps leading to the central hut and the right-hand hut has a woman in a red skirt standing in the doorway. The top of the chimney for this last hut is formed by a barrel. Bush combined with rock formations suggest the Coromandel district, visited by Hoyte during the gold-mining era. The settlement is likely to be of semi-permanent miners' huts. Other Titles - Early settlers' camp.
