Bangham (Environmental Association 1.5.2)
An undulating plain of Tertiary sand with local ferruginous cappings. overlain by easterly trending dunes and sheets of aeolian sand of variable thickness. Occasional sinkholes and small depressions, some of which are swampy, are caused by solution of the underlying limestone. No integrated surface drainage network is developed and some drainage disappears underground. Parkland with pasture understory, and large blocks of low open forest are grazed at varying intensities by beef cattle, coarse wool sheep and merinos. One small area of low open forest is a conservation park.
Swamps and blocks of remnant forest and woodland are local features in middleground panoramic views. Roads within these blocks provide perspective views with detail of the forest and heath understory.
