Description: Leslie C Poke with his bullock team at Lileah, Tasmania in the mid 1920's. When Leslie Poke left Marrawah in 1925 he took over a soldiers settlement farm at Lileah. At that time there was only one acre of the farm under pasture, all the rest was thick bush. With the aid of this long horn bullock team he cleared the farm over a number of years and it became very productive farmland.
