The Wool Wash once formed part of the the Historic Big Burrawang station established in 1819 and was owned by Thomas Edols. The station covered approx 520,000 ac stretching from Trundle to Bedgerebong and in its peak carried 273,000 sheep and boosted a wool clip of nearly 5000 bales. Still today the boiler stands on the river bank with the hand made rock souring area where they used to clean the wool.The property has been producing wool for 200 years. The productive fertile country has been in the Webb family for around 15 years and is located on the banks of the Lachlan River approximately 55 km west from Forbes via the Bedgerebong road. This 1364 ac parcel of land has very fertile alluvial grey self mulching soils along with seepage country in the bends of the river. There is 650 ac of lasered flood irrigation with inverted syphons. The vendor had sold off the majority of the irrigation water as he was not irrigating for a few years, but still has 100 megs of general security that he will sell to the successful purchaser if required.There is power on the block where the old house was, Diesel motor and 14'inch pump and a set of old cattle yards, but other than that there is no improvements. The vendors main focus has been on breeding merino sheep with approximately 1000ac cropped for stock feed and running 5000 breeders in conjunction with Monwonga and Gloming . The vendor are selling the Wool Wash to expand their operation with another opportunity that has been presented to them where they will continue to run their mixed farming enterprise with the focus on breeding Merino sheep. This property would be well suited to cotton with it rich fertile alluvial soil.
