Type : School Halt
Line : North Coast Line
Distance from Sydney : 469.124km 
Location : -31.336272, 152.778039
Opened : Unknown, but prior to 1951
Closed : Unknown, but probably around 1959
Status : Closed
Name meaning : Name of the owner of the property associated with the stop
Notes: Mentioned in the 1951 timetable, associated with the properties at 138 & 172 Farrawells Rd Telegraph Point which were both the same holding. Not mentioned in any Weekly Notice** in the 1889–1989 collection. Consistent with its nature as an informal school halt at a private property level crossing — such stops were typically gazetted only in public timetables and not recorded in the operational Weekly Notices. The 1955 WN does reference a level crossing at Mileage 291m 37c between Pembrooke and Telegraph Point (gates attended 6 a.m.–6 p.m. daily from 16 July 1955) — this is approximately 469 km from Sydney and may be the crossing associated with the halt.

## 1955 — Level Crossing at 291m 37c (Pembrooke–Telegraph Point) — W.N. — 1955

### Level Crossing Gates Attended — 1955
> **Page 105 — Level Crossings (North Coast)** — Since **16th July, 1955**, the level crossing gates at Mileage **291m 37ch.** (**Pembrooke–Telegraph Point**) are attended between the hours of **6 a.m. and 6 p.m.** daily. All the gates at the above location have been fitted with hooks and chains and notices exhibited. Delete letter "G" and insert letter "H" in column headed "See notes, page 100." *(Source: 1955 Weekly Notices)*

A sign on Pembrook Rd still points to "Cutler's Siding" indicating it may have been used as something other than a simple school halt at some stage.
