Geography[]

Most of The Limits is mountainous terrain with unnamed peaks rising to 310 metres (1,020 ft); this land is undeveloped. The lower flatter areas (approx 170 metres (560 ft)) in the north of the locality and other areas in the various creek valleys are used for grazing cattle.[3]

History[]

The origin of the name is unclear but the Von Cronholm family were fruit growers at "The Limit" (singular) from at least 1936.[4][5]
