Tunbridge is in the Midlands, which lie due east of the Great Western Tier. Suzanne's sister Barbara and her husband Malcolm, who are from Brisbane are restoring a Georgian store as a 10 year project.

The Midlands around Tunbridge is an agricultural district of crops and grazing that is earmarked to be upgraded to irrigation agriculture in Jonathan West's Report for the Australian Innovation Research Centre at the University of Tasmania entitled ----An Innovation Strategy for Tasmania A New Vision for Economic Development.
I'm not sure that farmers of the area are ready to switch to irrigated crops or that they skills needed to do so.

It was raining in Tunbridge--the driest part of Tasmania --whereas in Queenstown, one of the wetest areas, it was very dry.
