The Henbury Meteorites Conservation Reserve contains 12 craters which are of national astro-geological importance. They have played an important part in the scientific study of meteorites over the past 60 years.
The Plan sets guidelines for the future management of the Reserve in order to conserve it?s natural resources while providing opportunities for visitors to appreciate the scientific values of the area.
The Reserve is increasingly becoming a popular place to visit en route to Watarrka and Uluru for those travellers on the Ernest Giles Road.Made available by the Northern Territory Library via the Publications (Legal Deposit) Act 2004 (NT).Date:2002-1
Plan of management
Made available by the Northern Territory Library via the Publications (Legal Deposit) Act 2004 (NT).Ryan Well Historical Reserve serves as a rest area of considerable historical interest for travellers
using the Stuart highway north of Alice Springs. The Reserve contains the remains of two
important historic sites, a water well constructed in the 1890s and associated with the early
settlement of central Australia and the remains of Glen Maggie Homestead erected early this
century.
The South Australian Government named the well after Ned Ryan, who with the aid of his
nephew, Jeremiah Ryan and his well sinking team known as ?Ryan?s Camel Party?, completed
Ryan Well in 1889. Samuel Nicker and his family established Glen Maggie as a sheep and cattle
station in 1914. The station homestead was named after Margaret, the daughter of Samuel and
Elizabeth Nicker.
The Reserve today allows visitors to appreciate the history associated with the site and of some of
the hardships endured by early pioneers who used Ryan Well as a watering point.
The Plan sets guidelines for the future management of the Reserve in order to conserve its
resources while providing opportunities for visitors to appreciate the historic values of the area

Parks and Wildlife Commission of the Northern Territory
Made available by the Northern Territory Library via the Publications (Legal Deposit) Act 2004 (NT).John Flynn Historical Reserve was placed in the care of the NT Reserves Board in 1957 and both
Attack Creek and Central Mount Stuart Historical Reserves in 1963. At this time the NT Reserves
Board was the only organisation with existing legislation and expertise able to take control of
such Reserves. These Reserves have no biological conservation values and no physical historical
remains as the memorials were built to commemorate historical events. The Reserves are
maintained by the Department of Transport and Works (T&W) and fit well with their Stuart
Highway Visitor Facilities Strategy.
This Plan sets guidelines for the future management of these three Historical Reserves.Date:2000-0

This Plan of Management sets guidelines for the future management and conservation
of Barranyi (North Island) National Park. The Plan recognises that while the Park is
