Ravenhall Nature Conservation Reserve
Comprised of four parcels. What better place for a couple of prisons than the western Ravenhall parcel? The state government loves putting infrastructure on 'empty' places that are actually ancient old-growth grassland remnant. The Deer Park Bypass carves up the northern two.
