Hi Walter,

I'm afraid I cannot answer precisely without more research. I've located a
couple landmarks which help place it generally, but will have to find more
detailed maps with all the geological boundaries shown before we can
determine the exact placement. It could well straddle two or all 3
communities.

Regards,
Ned
