Leppington. Pig farm closes for railway track

Bringelly Pork and Bacon, which has been in the Leppington area for more than 50 years, is one of many farms in the south-west that will disappear with the development of the 11.4 kilometre South-West Rail Link through the property. David and Richard Bligh, owners of the property, were offered about $1.2 million for the acquired land. Property assessors estimated the full farm value at $10.3 million. The brothers have lodged an appeal in the Land and Environment Court.
