| History |
This Reserve was part of a larger property. There is a pad down the right side of the Reserve where the old house stood. Remnants of old crockery have can sometimes be found there. Also near the front on Stonegate Road, there is a cement slab which covers an old well. |

Roleybushcare has worked for many years in Stonegate Reserve There was a possibility at one time that it would be sold off. Roleybushcare (alias the Roleystone Dieback Action Group) worked with the Reserve's neighbouring residents. Dieback Treatment is carried out on the Reserve. This is a chore undertaken every 4 to 5 years in spring or summer. The Friends of Stonegate Reserve worked hard to remove the many Lucerne trees and introduced plants. they also removed masses of rubbish. We plant seedlings in the winter. Our main problem is to combat the weeds. A group of concerned locals are spending time combating this problem. If you would like to help, please email

The front of the Reserve was very bare and covered in weeds. The area has been planted with seedlings over many years. Slowly we are covering the front with local vegetation.
The back of the Reserve is quite good. Much more denser vegetation.
