Back-blocks

Kiwi English vernacular for rural regions of bush and scrub land with farms and farmland being broken in. Usually difficult of access because only serviced by loose metal roads (gravel roads) that are narrow and dusty. Rough country farms with few and large paddocks inhabited by few people.

Not to be confused with back-block, which is the last paddock on the farm to have been broken into farmland.

The farm is in the back-blocks beyond Welsford (town in New Zealand).
Years ago Kaukapakapa was considered the back-blocks.
