Further to my last, the note/sign is likely in reference to the Pinus radiata
forest planted by the WA's Forests Department on the former/historic
Southampton Homestead property:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southampton_homestead
The signposted track looks to go directly to such a forest.
It's not a named track according to Landgate, so I think it may be a poorly
executed direction sign.
Cheers
Mark

My guess would be Plantation, given the pine forests in the area.

Another question re Notes!
On https://www.openstreetmap.org/note/1688984#map=19/-33.93526/116.02726,
the OP commented "Southampton Pltn".
I asked what that meant & they said it was what was on the sign?
https://postimg.cc/TpwrMCRZ
Any thoughts on Pltn?
The only thing I can think of could be Platoon, but that's usually only Pl,
or sometimes Pln / Plt.
There is a group of buildings & a water tank just down the road the sign is
pointing to which "could" relate to Rural Firies, which "could" then relate
to Platoon, but that's definitely a bit of a stretch!
Any thoughts, especially from you Sandgropers? :-)
Thanks
Graeme
