History of Tarra , The Sawmill Block
464 Musk Creek Road was part of the landholdings of PJ Adams. Jack Adams was then the owner of the Alphington Quarry. He first purchased land around School Hill in 1928.
Over the next forty years he cleared two grazing properties, Lingwen and Gwenmarlin and established a Poll Hereford stud farm and pine plantation. The felled native timber and pines were milled at 464 Musk Creek Rd for use on the properties and for sale. During this time his enterprises provided much needed local employment. Timber milled here was used to construct the Main Ridge Bowling Club.
Mr Adams daughter Gwenda and her husband Bill Ulbrich, a manufacturing engineer, purchased this five acres from Mr Adams in 1960. They built a home and retired here in 1974, planting a vineyard and olive grove. The vineyard was amongst the first planted on the peninsula and the foundation meeting of the Mornington Peninsula Vignerons Association was held in the shed at the northern end of the property. The vineyard produced grapes for 20 years.
