The year 1941 saw the maximum expansion of agricultural activity. After that and, as farm workers became hard-to-get during World War II, some of the bush came back. Towards the end of the century, much farmland was compulsorily purchased for the roadworks that resulted in the F3 freeway. Some of this land was left over after construction and resold, but the floodable land along Ourimbah Creek remained in the possession of the RTA (the floodplain) and Wyong Council (the creek banks).
