According to this poorly written news report, it looks like the woodland next to the golf course at Red Hill has dodged another bullet.  Unfortunately, it probably won't be long before another one is fired.    I know the golf club has been determined to sell the land and has attempted this on multiple occasions.  It appears that the remnant woodland at Stirling Ridge (or as it is written in the report "Stirling Ride") is still under fire.  I also know that Stirling Ridge was previously set aside for the Prime Minister's Lodge.  The Friends of Grasslands are doing some restoration work at that woodland and it contains the endangered Button Wrinklewort (see example here:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/eucalyptus_melliodora/6357205645/in/set-72157611645418019).
