The Ruamahanga River to the left, and Clifford and Weld's sheep station homestead in front of bush in the centre and right. The roof appears to be made of battened-down thatch, and the plants in front may be rows of vegetables. A slab chimney is on the left end of the single-storey house.
Prior to January 2000, catalogued as Cottage by William Swainson; however comparison with an almost identical signed and titled pencil drawing at A-035-001 shows it to be of Wharekaka and by William Mein Smith.
