J.S. Weeding's history of the lower Midlands district of Tasmania — the region south of Campbell Town encompassing Oatlands, Tunbridge and a wide range of smaller communities across the Southern and Lower Midlands.
The lower Midlands is convict-era country — the road south from Campbell Town passes through landscapes shaped by assigned convict labour, pastoral runs, coaching inns and probation stations. Weeding documents the communities and families that settled this country across the colonial and post-colonial periods.
Districts and communities covered include Oatlands, Tunbridge, Antill Ponds, Jericho, Interlaken, Parattah, Mount Seymour, Lake Tiberias, Rhyndaston, Stonor, Tunnack, Woodsdale, Andover, Levendale, Stonehenge and Swanston — an extraordinarily wide sweep of the Southern Midlands documented in a single volume.
